Thought i'd stick it in here as it will end up here anyway....

Started off my weekend in a rather different fashion compared to every other show i go to, it was 3.30pm saturday afternoon until i had broken out any buckets to wash the car. I had done a pre-show treatment only a week before so all it needed was a wash and thats it, so rather than spend my morning doing mine i helped other people!

Popped round a friend of mine's to drop some wax off, whilst there another friend turned up in his RS. I wish i had washed mine at that point because on this rare occasion i was the one with a dirty car

Also may aswell point out at this point i have duncans old wheels, finally

Then started on mine, quick wash and a zip over with detailing spray and that was that!

Drive to the services, no photos taken i was more interested in getting a decent cup of tea!

Waiting in traffic, needs to be done every ford fair! ( Also the mk3 zs infront of me was very nice, on coil overs was nicely executed! )

Get to silverstone, sams infront of me and we're all pretty well together but another 45min waiting to get from 4 lanes into a single file, what retard decided that was a good idea is beyond me!

One car that was parked near our stand, really caught my attention. The gold wheels i though suited it so well, very doubtful i could get it to look just as good on mine!

Gold leaf Lotus Cortina, massive want.

Peel's in for the added edge!

So yeah all in all a very good day. Thanks to everyone who came and who i spoke to, i do appretiate these events more now for the social side than for the car to look good. I know there was a few guys on the stand i didnt get to speak to, will try next time!

Massive thanks also goes out to the near 4.5 hours of traffic that was sat in that day, getting into fordfair and on the way to mk cruise at night, it wouldnt be an event without it!

Cheers

Nice pics jack another great write up x

great pics jack! couldn't believe the traffic for you guys getting to MK!

Great pics jack

Should've turned right and gone through Towcester, then onto the A5, and down to MK that way. We've gone that way home for the last few years after FF now, as you end up missing so much of the post-event traffic.

should have turned left out of silverstone to buckingham then to mk didnt stop once on the way to MK

great pics jack

Excellent write up and pics Jack Enjoyable read

Great write-up and pics

nice one Jack

Brilliant write up Jack. Great photos. I struggled to get pics of most things. It's nice to see you managed to get some fantastic pics.

I dislike any car on stretched tyres. That is wrecked! I do like the Mk2 on gold wheels!

You need to get yourself a Mk1 Jack... can sort a line of them with mine, Chris and Adams then

I love the social side of the events. I'll turn up in anything just as long as I'm there

Hi guys,

First of all i would like to say thanks to whoever ( i believe it's Steph?) reserved extra places at the Hungry horse! Thanks a lot. Second i appolagize for being late, we had to pick up our ford fair tickets at a campsite which took a bit longer then expected. So sorry for that. Some proper introduction where in order, but since we where late and you guys where already eating... We didn't want to bother you while eating.

Anyway first time for me in the UK....and driving on the 'wrong' side of the road :P
Also some accents where pretty difficult for me to u derstand *couch* newcastle *couch*. Always 'us' instead of 'i' but i only saw her. Until my mate pointed out it was her accent. Also out 'shortcut' through London was a nightmare we all got seperated and lost.

But Ford Fair was amazing! Never experienced anything like it. I mean the company stands combined where larges than most Dutch events and in 12 hours time we only saw half of the cars that where there. It was amazing!

Next year we will attent ford fair again! Again thanks for diner reservation, wish i could've introduced myself properly and spoken to more people. Hope we weren't to annoying!

Brilliant write up Jack! Love Duncan's old wheels on your car
