Irmscher Man Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 First day completed at the NEC Classic motor show and our feet didnt really touch the ground all day. We have 3 lovely cars on the stand and they all attracted a great deal of interest. I found myself talking to Jon Bentley this afternoon, who apparently owned a Mk1 Cavalier in his early driving career. Very nice chap and once the producer of Top Gear and later Fifth gear, so he is a proper Petrol head. We met quite a few new members, caught with some old friends, and gave out a few membership cards, which is what this show is all about for us really. On the stand this year, we have Keith’s beautiful Cavalier Coupe (winner of the OMOC 2022 Show & Shine), Allan’s stunning wide bodied genuine Manta 400 (wide made the journey down from Scotland), and Theo’s impressive Ascona 400 Rally car, which has had quite an illustrious career and still looks the business at a car show! I’ve noticed when posting these photos that you can really see just how incredibly shiny Keith’s Cavalier is! Top work prepping the car for the show Keith…your hard work really paid off as it looks amazing! Hope you enjoy the photos. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metalbasher Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Hi Paul, I was one of the newbies you met and a fine welcome received, thank you. Great to see the enthusiasm and a genuinely busy stand. All honours to Keith and his Cavalier coupe, I managed to look under the bonnet and grab a fair few photos, excellent and many thanks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
