Hi, and welcome to the forums.

Nice motor, that. Where abouts are you? Ever thought of popping along to your local meeting? You'll be made most welcome.

Here's the S2000 you spoke of:

Hi

I'm not sure who you were talking to from Barnsley, it could have been Dave Warren.

There was a crowd from the Bristol Region in the paddock area. Paul the RO for the region ran his black '44 Turbo up the hill. They are a friendly active bunch who meet at The Fox, Easter Compton on the first Tuesday of the month.

I have had a few Alfa's over the years and it was nice to see a good gathering of them in the orchard.

The new look Spider will not be for the purists but it sure looks the doggies8) .
