Hi guys,

Disappointed that it was seen as a "glitterati" event this was far from the case!

The museum was open to the public before and after the the formal bit. The unveiling of the plaque and interviews were all held outside with great public access and viewing. Yes there was a vip area to which access was restricted.

Many enthusiasts had a great day and there were 3 M100s present - all red! One sadly has a cracked windscreen and owner was advised to join LEC for advice, experiences etc.........

Hopefully the link will take you to a news report.
