Saffron walden motor show 13th August 2017

Postby mettersl » Sat Aug 12, 2017 4:34 pm

Tomorrow is the saffron walden motor show on the common in walden. (Sorry for the short notice).
Www.saffronwaldenmotorshow.co.uk
A very small charitable event, there will be some food and other stalls, its right by the town centre if you want a meal or coffee ( or toilets).
No entry charge for cars or visitors, they are asking cars to arrive by 10"if possible".
I'll be down there with the 610, no doubt having it identified as a Porsche or a Nissan all day, but there you go.
Would be great to see anyone from on here, with or without their cars.
There will be collection buckets for the Arthur Rank Hospice charity.

wouldn't mind coming Lee but is it an all day thing? Not sure I can commit a whole day, Is an escape possible maybe at lunchtime?
never thought I would want a list but now find myself needing one just to remind me: Clio V6 230, 5 gt turbo, 5 Gordini turbo, Megane RS 300 Trophy.

I'm not sure, I'd be surprised if there isn't, you can ask and turn around if you get the wrong answer,
Ark up see the cars and leave. I'm not sure I want to spend the whole day either.
Ian (swagsupercarsdad) was trying out find out if he could come late too. Yellow spider...
Organiser is Roger Abbott on 07871197915.
Hope to see you...
Cheers

Thanks Mark,
no pictures taken by me...but Ian (swagsupercarsdad) came along later, as did Riku.
Whilst there through chatting to its owner, I found that there is a pearlescent GTA turbo locally, it's a two owner, always inside car but has a problem with overheating and water leakage into the sump...he thinks it's liner to block seating, but could easily be cylinder head gaskets.
They have lots of other projects (non alpine) so,I'll try and keep in touch and see if they can be encouraged to get it back on the road.
Lovely sunny day with some interesting cars.

Sorry, Lee, didn't take many photos, so no pictures of your car from the show yesterday, but here's a couple of mine.
