Back too. Top down all night.

We did a 'return trip' after a drink in a boozer. All very nice, 30's decor, the lot!!!

I don't think that we could have timed it better for the fireworks, just back from the tower when the lights went on.

There were a lot of pedestrians making appreciative comments as they passed by and a few driver going in the opposite direction wanted to swap their FORD ESCORT for mine!!!! yeah and a big wedge of cash mate!!

Thanks for everone who came and made the evening a success. Andy and I were plotting the next event in the pub……  :dontknow:  :wink:

Dan

just got back, great event, shame I didnt make it to the illuminations with the rest of yaa. Got there a bit further back I think, but managed to do the whole 6 miles and back home with the top down.

A really big thanks to Dano and A5OPY, you guys put a lot of effort into the prep and organising and geeing along tonight. Well done its much appreciated.

Had a fantastic night and a big CHEERS needs to got to dano a well planned and well executed meet.
this is the type of meet that puts the NW region the premier region in the UK, unless you know different?

Here's some pics of the evening.
Some of us meet at B&Q at Walton Le Dale
The Beetle had to retire due to Exhaust falling off 2 miles from the off :cry:


Then Off to Chippy for a very nice chippy tea





Here we have some of the stars of the evening with their cars.
All in all 13 mk1s were on parade well done to all for making the effort :clap:  :clap:  :notworthy:









Staffords showing us that putting a hood cover on is as easy as taking candy from a Baby ( or is it a Vimto Lolly???)

sorry didnt get to meet everybody but great night. cheers dano - anyone who can get 30 odd chippy orders right deserves a star.

the guy in the ferrari was funny, especially  after he probably went to all that effot renting it for the night.

cheers

jack & kate

Looks like a fab evening run, well done to all involved.

Not been to 'luminations for yonks, doing it in a top down cabrio sounds an ideal way

Anyway, best fun in a meet i have had, really looking forward to it again.

clip from B&Q….

how often do these nw meets go on? where they usually held?

Bit add hoc and various locations including a couple of trips to buxton.

for the Nwest meets keep an eye on the Northwest pages under the regions section on the left hand side of the screen.

for buxton trips keep an eye out on these pages.

thanks everyone,we all had a great time.roll on the next meet.

we want more to come next time :wink:
