Ok, so pictures here guys, I'll be posting mine in a sec, they are uploading at the moment though. There were a few cameras out today, but as there were not many cars I don't think we had many pictures taken, most were taken when walking about the common earlier in the day.

On with the pics!

Cow....


Another cow....


Uh, I think that was the same one...


Either way, you had the weather for it. Was the X Bow with you?
 
Unfortunately not, Biggles noticed it on the way back from getting petrol i think though so we all went and had a look :D
 
My day started off by going to Vigoro's to give his car an oil change, as it was in need of one and he couldn't do it...he isn't man enough.

My car was filthy by this point as I'd not cleaned it in weeks and have used it a lot, so I got Vig to do it...

Then it was off to the first meet point, at Greenham Common, we got there just after Howard, and quickly followed by Matt and Neil...

That is all for my pics unfortunately, was having more fun talking and driving, and eating than taking pictures, as indeed I think everyone else was. :)

So it actually turned out to be a bunch of guys with cameras walking about in the woods.....

People will start talking you know!
 
Im still yet to be convinced by the XBow... It looks, strange. I like the agressive angle they have gone, but cant help think it looks fat, especially at the rear, and of what ive heard its not as impresive as it looks. Its also a fair old chunk of money...

But tbh, its competitiors are other kit cars and things, which can range from £5k Se7en style kits to £100k+ Lotus V8 monsters... so its difficult to qualtify.

If I had to buy a car with no bodywork where I had to wear a helmet and use of for epic fun, id buy a Warner R4 instead and pocket the £40k change!
 
So to summarise:

Vigoro is invaders bitch
The cows are very photogenic
Some secret nuclear bunkers in the woods
Frolocking in the woods
Mike is the biggest poser
Fianlly, the exige is pure :cool:

Damn wish i came to the meet now! :D
