Neil, I can't make it sadly. My sister has decided to arrange a family meal in Boston which I cannot get out of due to being chauffeur.

Hi Neil, put me down as a definite attendee then please, it's only the logistics of accommodation/breakfast that are uncertain.
__________________
2003 D2 FL S8. Irish Green Pearl/Beige. Solar sunroof, auto-dim mirrors, electric rear seat functions, ski hatch retrofit; extended leather. Aftermarket DVB-T, reversing camera and full XCarlink (Bluetooth etc.).
2016 Volvo V40 T5 Cross Country (4WD) with ALL the toys including adaptive cruise etc. etc. Osmium Grey with Blonde/Charcoal leather interior. Polestar performance "optimisation". (A much rarer model than a D2 S8 by the way!) Oh, and a brand new engine at just under 30,000 miles on the factory one!
Finally: gone, but not forgotten.....
1998 D2 PF S8. AgateGrey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors.
e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)
1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon, Auto-dim mirror, Leather, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer.
And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Saying that I'm gutted is a very polite form and a huge understatement and with the regret I'd like to pull out my car from the stand, but keep the other car please.
Doors and roof has been deep scratched and car needs to go to body shop.
Reason why is scratched: I don't want to talk about it so please dont ask, I'm too ''gutted''.
Thank you Neil

That's really terrible Marcin, hopefully an isolated incident, but still a pain in the butt, and indefensible in any situation.

Aspect Valeting from Swindon will be there in the show ground this year again (as last year and at AITP) with their vans and equipment and they will do a basic wash snow foam and dry etc externally from £20 upwards but very much NOT local hand car wash style!

£20 for External Valet or £40 for External Valet and Spray Wax application giving 3 months protection.

If anyone wants to book their car in at a specific time then let me know and I'll sort it, otherwise you will be queuing up if any others are there first.
