Default British Auto Jumble 2013 (Waalwijk, Netherlands)

Last weekend there was a Dutch event; British Auto Jumble 2013 (Waalwijk, The Netherlands). Good weather, and a lot of British cars! The only R75 Tourer V8 in the Netherlands was also there. (Only 5 R75 v8 Tourers with LHD are shipped overseas...)

Our Dutch Mg-r club was also there of course.

Some pictures:













































Hooligans....




















The only 75 V8 Tourer in NL:

Hi arjan,

thank you for the great pics of the best of british cars, ok Im biased lol but clearly owners in nederlands feel as strongly about their cars as we do over here. It looked a bit like a mini version of POL, which I attended in april at cofton park just across from the longbridge site, there are lots of pics of the event on the forum we even had a couple of members drive over from germany to join in !!

Hope you and family enjoyed the day


Mike

It was a great day indeed!

@Woof25: Yes, there are a lot of English-car-lovers over here. There were around 250 cars I think, it's one of the events where you should be spotted in a year.

@Championdaddy; no it's not my car (unfortunately ).
The two kids are mine, and they could have a ride in one of our members car.
Mine is the BRG R75 Tourer, a real family car.
By the way: The favorit brand of the youngest is MG . The oldest is an Rover-fan... So until now I think I did a good job....

@Bongi69: If you will be around Eindhoven, come along and we drink a Lager. And of course drool at our 75's... And if you would bring some parts over here... I have an orderlist, hahah

I have family that live in Hoofddorp (its near Schipol airport). I'll be passing Eindhoven on the 23rd on my way to Luxembourg, and I'm going to De Efteling too on that weekend My wife won't get it though lol she'll be asking me why we're going to meet strangers she doesn't understand

And also I have a 2 1/2yr old daughter travelling with us so I don't think I'll have loads of room for parts lol. Is there anything you need thats small and I could maybe see if I can get it for you? Our parts supply isn't great here in Ireland not as good as the UK, but I can always try for you
