RP6C National Rally, Rugeley, 10th and 11th September 2011

Congratulations to Angie, Mark and the team for organising and running another great day out - made even better that, apart from a brief shower, the threatened deluge never materialised.

It was great to chat with other club and forum members - and I managed to pick up a really good pair of rear quarter panels for Occie. :)

And well done to all the winners!

Cheers,

A very big thank you goes to everyone who attended and helped to make the day another fantastic success for the Rover P6 Club. We thought the weather was going to be spoil the day but as it turned out the one brief shower didn't dampen any of your enthusiasm afterall. Special thanks also goes out to Ian Wilson and Kevin Allen for bringing their trade spares stands along and I hope it proved viable for them both. Another special thank you is sent to Michelle for the bouncy castle, Mel for bringing the Police Speed Camera van along and I must say big big thank you to Hawkesyard's Chef for the BBQ....it must have been good because when I went back for seconds, there was nothing left. Final thank yous to the Stuart for the use of the hospitality unit at short notice, Paul for the PA and Clive for doing the valuations on behalf of the Club.

I must add a Thank you for the kind words that you have posted on here and I'm glad to hear that you have got home safely, although there are still some of you on the way home, so take care. We actually settled down to a glass of wine and something to eat around 8.30pm last night, but today I'm still sorting the trailer and contents of the two cars we used for the equipment, while also preping the trailer ready for the National Restoration Show on the 23rd October. Don't forget that the RP6C display area, will host of the meeting point for CRF members at that show at 12 noon on the day.

The white 216 VDP auto, is a particularly fine example with a very low mileage and a very inetresting history and is not Chris York's, who unfortunately met with several vehicle failures on route to the event. And sadly Chris and our German friends who were traveling with him, didn't make it to the rally.
Thank you once again for attending the event and making it another major success for the RP6C, and very well done to all of your who came away with trophies and awards.
 
Yes,excellent turnout of some fine cars,the standard is getting better and better each year,thanks to mark and angie for there hard work in organising a really good national rally :D
 
Looks like a superb show, with some astoundingly good examples present. I'd have loved to have come, but couldn't due to a combination of work commitments and car issues!
 
Jane and I have just got back from the show (via a few days in the Cotswolds) and we'd like to thank for everyone who helped organise a great day and say well done to the trophy winners - I know which bits I need to concentrate on next!

It was surprized at how much interested EMF got during the day too and spent a good proportion of the day showing people round and explaining what I'd been up to, which was nice.
 
Congrats to Mark and Angie for organizing such a great show! I was there on Sun and it was great to see some really tidy P6's and put names (and cars) to faces. Really enjoyed myself! Hope to see you all again soon.

Looks like I missed a great show in order to go to my cousins 65th birthday lunch! Great pictures Happy Days. The word has already spread south about the excellent and reasonably priced the barbeque put on by the golf club. Splendid idea. Well done Mark and Angie.

Cheers Tony Bunting
