Mike Archer will be there taking pics for us. Sadly he drives an Alfa, but don't hold that against him.

Thanks to all who attended today, another great turn out of Lancias, nice weather and great to catch up with so many people, past and present members and hopefully a few new members.

A few photos from today.

Even this morning I was in two minds if I was going to go - and I'm so glad I did and so sorry I couldn't stay twice as long. 

I feel I need to apologise for the "non Lancias" in the set.  That X1-9 is one lady owner from new and on the front of the X1-9 book I bought half an hour before,  she was charming.  Perhaps its the 40 year rule but that 128 3P just sat so well, much lower and much more practical than I remembered them, there was another in another colour I liked almost as much. The Cisitalia grill is CAST, an exquisite thing on its own let alone the rest of it.  So much to see and enjoy beyond what felt like as many Lancias as at the AGM last.  When did this event get so big?  It must be 15 years since I've been.

The wierdy colours are William having fun with the new camera - he can set effects before taking the picture.

It makes me think that perhaps this is the year to try and make it to the NEC.

My first time there, and what a great day it was, so glad I made the effort to drive there, although the queue to get out brought on a spell of fuel vaporisation on my Flavia, but it soon cleared once on the A3. Roll on the AGM.

Bob,

Is this your car?   If I can put a name to a car I stand a better chance (I need all the help I can get...) of matching a face to a name

It looked gorgeous and I for one was delighted you made it.

Are you going to the Flavia AGM in Oxfordshire this Sunday (I think I'm ok for it) or did you mean the LMC AGM in Cambridge (still very much subject to negotiation)?
