Quite a successful day! Best BMW, Audi, Merc, Porsche, VW etc. were picked by judges out of the 100s there and were offered a photo shoot outside the house.









...and as for the Germany road trip. I'm away in Italy over that weekend so will not be able to attend

Well done on your trophy (you did let them know that it wasn't a real S8??)

Thanks. Nobody asked and no bonnets were lifted so I thought it best to let sleeping dogs lie!

Digressing slightly, the only visual difference I've noticed so far with an S8 and my 'S8' is the real deal has a pink tinted infrared windscreen and rear screen....and the brakes
