I've been lurking the site for some while now with great benefit to myself.
I spoke to a few M 100 owners yesterday at Castle Combe and took a few pictures during the parade laps.
Unfortunately I had to stay in one place for the photos from the public area so they are a bit samey and the slow speed of the cars (at times) means they look a bit static. The link is www.pbase.com/dodders/motoring
If anyone can help me with the models shown in the historic section I'd be grateful.

Nice pics - well done and welcome.

This is a bit necky, but you don't have one of Stripey that can be rotated/cropped normally do you?

My mate had a good quality camera with him; I'm looking forward to seeing what he captured. I wont see him until next week though, but in the meantime, here are some that I took.

did she offer you a lick Paul? We won't tell the other half you were out on the pull, honest.

Seriously though the Elan is a real attraction to the 'fairer' sex as Paul has adequately demo'ed. Well done Paul :lol:

The only pic I have of Stripey is the one you've seen. I've modified it a bit, but can't help otherwise.

Thats a lady that I first met at the stand at Donington earlier in the year! (Neil Enright13 - do you remember her?)

She bought a custard M100 at that particular show. They also have a custard esprit in their fleet! Nice! :D

She's also a member on LEC....................

Awesome photos! Which beggs the question what could you have done without the resident photographers monopoly?!

Thanks for letting me take a copy from your site, it's now my favourite photo of my car! :-D

Cheers,
