Warwick Rover meet 27th June pics

Devilish · 28th June 2010, 20:42

It was the Rover Sports Register meet, a most enjoyable well organised meet, weather was scorching, and the venue was superb. The turnout was better than I expected, all in all a great day, I will certainly attend another.

Can you believe John Astons' superb MkI got the award for best 75 and I did not. Just because it is a lot better than mine (ok I voted for him but that is not the point). Here he is arriving at noon and trying to make a sharp exit before I could take his pic (yeh right) perhaps 30 yeard ago he might have been quick enough

The venue does not look that big but it was massive.

First to arrive in the Rover 75 class was a tourer

Then someone in a tourer

Next to arrive was someone in a tourer

I thought I was in a tourer section, until someone parked next to him in a........... tourer

Now I was thinking this would be weird if Starbug, Wolves 75, and WIDE LOAD were here
Then someone arrived in a tourer, thank god

I am glad VWGeezer (I think) pulled up

Before the next 2 tourers, as I was thinking twilight zone

Followed by whatshisname from Belgium (sorry forgot your name) in his spiffing SE sporting a walnut armrest lid, walnut switch panels, and a club badge.

A selection of pics

The owners were parading around the venue in these, was neat to see

Forgot about you Rob, that could have been a dozen tourers

I have lots of info about the club, will post the next meet,
I might join so I can try and talk them to having the following class of car

Rover 75 2004 facelift Firefrost manual diesel tourer with smokestone/ash grey leather interior and Serpents, and the owner has to be named Steve.
Oh and it must be sporting a shiney new pre drive grille badge

Just once, so I can have a good shot at best in class award

trebor · 28th June 2010, 22:56

great pics Steve, definitely on my list next year and well pleased for John Aston, myabe his neighbour will go next year and beat him as he has a 75 with even less miles than John does as you know, where is the picture of the walnut armrest lid ?

To think i missed this meet so i could watch England v Germany, i certainly made the wrong choice !

See you at 4 Ashes this week

Wolves 75 · 28th June 2010, 23:17

We would have been there Steve, but it was a bit late to sort work out, looks like a cracking day, nice to see a copperleaf tourer there, seems every meet has one, might Matt Black mine then I can be different ..........

I could have brought my MG X Power BMX and entered the bicycle section......
