Jak jak Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 A couple of pics that I have acquired from Michael Turner from the MR2 Drivers club. Darrens Lexus LC500 looks awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I went over to the NEC this year on the closing day and was surprised, and a little saddened over how many of the exhibitors now have their cars roped off to the public. It was mainly the Ford owners who seem to have got a bit precious about their vehicles. On the roped off Capri stand there was a gazebo at the back of the stand with all the exhibitors sat around chatting with each other and I was wondering what is the point. As a former owner of 4 Capri's that was a bit disappointing. A particular car favourite of mine since I was a boy is the e-type jag and there were a ton of those on display this year (probably more than any other car) and I made a few useful contacts in my hunt for a Mk1 Roadster. For anyone looking for a specialist, or expensive non Supra old classic then events like the Classic Car show is a great place to make contacts with those who know the marque down to specific bolt detail. I didn't know until this weekend that there are Mk1 e-type replicas around which are valued at a third of the real thing. Shows how valuable getting close to those in the know can be to stop you making any silly and expensive mistakes. The Supra stand looked really good as ever and the crew were there chatting to the public with the cars accessible to walk around. It did look a little cramped with the gap between cars quite narrow so hopefully they all got through the three days unscathed. It's a well done to IanIan and JakJak (so good we named them both twice) for all the time and effort that goes into organising, setting up and tearing down the Mk4 Supra stand. I had a wonderful daddy daughter day out and about the NEC, its the first time I've paid to go in for years and years. Note to self, I should probably try to go more often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry we missed you. Would have been good to catch up. Glad you enjoyed the show. We had the smallest stand ever this year so we made the most of it and put a couple of wider walkways in, the cars were unscathed except a watch strap scratch on our car. Will t cut out though. We abandoned plans for more flags and banners as this would have took more room off the walkways. Was a good busy show though and I think we all managed to get round and see the show this year.
