Only a couple of days to go until the culmination of many months of work when build the stand at the NEC. For anybody who has an i-phone and is planning to visit the show, there is an app which you can download to help you navigate your way around. If you struggle to find us, you can enter Lancia Motor Club into the app and it will take you directly to our stand. The app can be found at http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/footman-james-classic-motor/id475973466?mt=8. As I don't have an i-phone, I can't really give any more information as I am unable to test it! The club stand will be in Hall 5 (stand number 5C66), located near to the autojumble and next to the Jaguar stands. On the stand, we will be showing three anniversary cars: Aprilia, Artena and Gamma berlina. We also have three cars which are always requested at every NEC show: Fulvia coupe, Aurelia B20 and integrale. The theme of the show is "Runs in the Family". I have chosen the latter three cars as the "stradale" versions of cars which have motorsport "running in the family". I hope you will enjoy the show and I look forward to welcoming many of you to the stand over the course of the weekend.

TinTin is a good idea : I *may* have a white dog somewhere (children handpuppet thing) that would look-ish like Snowy.
Guess who. Ready for NEC? Tim

Well, just home and seated following four days at the NEC for the Classic Car Show (including set up). To say my feet ache would be an understatement, but what a great event.
So, on behalf of the Committee I need to say a few thanks:
Firstly to Stuart Wilsonfor organising the stand and getting everything in the right place at the right time.
Then to the exhibitors:
Tim Heath and Sarah Heath-Brook for the wonderful Aprilia Adrian Donovan for his spectacular Aurelia Richard Henshall for his beautiful Fulvia Coupe Don and Diana Williamson for their incredible Artena Giuseppe & Fi Rampello for the stunning Delta integrale Evo2 (and me for the rather nice Gamma Berlina)
To those who gave their time to help with manning the stand and setting up and breaking down (please accept my apologies if I have missed your name off the list - my memory is failing me!!)
Paul Bishop Paul Burnett David Melluish Simon Davis Steve Pilgrim Andy Tait Martin Dowling Peter Gerrish Steve, Margaret and Emma Gales Rob McFarlane Terry Pritchard Mark Lima Neil Cundy
and thank you Snowy for guarding the stand at night.
Our unique Press Officer excelled herself with her press report that made the show programme, and I know that she generated much press interest for the Lancia Motor Club - so thank you Julia.
Then I come to our Club colleagues in Betaboyz and the Montecarlo Consortium.
On the Beta front
Steve and Amanda Dodge Miles and Louse Holman Mark Wastnidge Tony Harrison John Bower
and on the Monte front - you know who you are!!
Jez, David, David, Chris, Paul, John, Andy, Eric.....
So, we had a great time.
We have yet again raised the profile of Lancia in the UK and our Clubs. We have cemented ever stronger links with our satelite consortia and forums.
And finally. Thank you to all of you who came and said hello over the weekend. It was good to see you, meet up, or reacquaint ourselves with you. Until next year .... and the planning has already commenced.
Regards
Andy

Just to say Snowy really enjoyed the show too and was happy to contribute.
Got home safely in OVS but without functioning indicators. The trafficators worked (but they are un lit - a mod to stop the wiring from being overloaded with the other modern indicators) but turning right no moderns lit - and turning left all indicators worked. That is probably why not many people over took me on the way home. A noisy 160 miles in 2hours 50 minutes - not bad eh!
