Pictures look great, even more annoyed at the lack of meets I've been able to get to.

Hope you all had a good day.

Yeah we enjoyed ourselves too. Andy and I had a good walk to find some nosh but the excersise was needed methinks!

My best car of the day was the Bittersweet ZT V8, truly superb!

Very impressed with the standard of some of the older exhibits too.
See you at the next one boys and girls!!

Photos to follow.

Although to be fair i'm not sure I regret missing the Camel thing!!

Bit cold but worth it for the suroundings and cars Plus meeting a few members and putting some Names to Faces

As Nick says see you at the next one folks!

Andy

P.S had a bit of a 'result' from the day ! Normally my CDTI has a rear end full of samples etc and although I dont 'teararse' about to much I travel 'with purpose' to get to appointments and things!! However following Nick who has a 2.5 V6 auto and was 'behaving himself' on the way there I arrived with 50.4 MPG showing on the dash so was well chuffed

(I had emptied the boot

) coming home in the rain the traffic was a bit thicker too and we were travelling with a bit more 'intent' but overall on the day both directions gave me 47.8 MPG so well satisfied with that!!

(I usually see between 40-43 MPG when I'm working) I have what I now know to be a 'Cheetah' tuning box set high and I know they can be a bit 'misleading' but its the comparison that I was interested in!!

Plus from 'brim to brim' checks I know it's not that far out!!

Thanks to all from the 75 and ZT club members who came along to the Oxfordshire MGOC event, MGs IN THE PARK on Sunday.
I know that many of you travelled a fair distance to get there.
Fortunately, the weather was not too bad. The ZTs and the 75's looked the biz. Put my lagoon ZT-T in the shade a bit! but, hey...
I hope you all had a great time and that we will see you again next year.

Thanks again guys.
