Matt O-SRi

Hope you don't mind Matt but I have added the following to your first post? Did it here rather than start a parallel thread.

If you have any parts to sell it is worth pointing out that a pitch plus table (inc entry for 2) is only £7. As the normal entry is £3 each the pitch is only costing £1.  Perhaps a Club pitch?

No probs John 

It may be a tad early for this post but hey ho as it's only 7/8 weeks away now. Who's up for this then this year? People fancy a stop over on the Sat night beforehand? Here's the link to the hotel very close to the Spares day.

The link below is for the actual spares day itself ..

Latest publicity from VBOA

Sunday March 9th 2014 will see the 10th consecutive running of this ever popular VBOA Spring event. Once again it will be held at the Connexion Exhibition Centre in Ryton-on-Dunsmore. The central location and the wide range of parts, accessories, models, clothing and books dedicated to our marques makes this a must do event for buyers and sellers alike. Once again we are offering pitches at only £5. With trestle tables only a further £2 why not dig out those parts from the back of the shed and join the show?

Access for jumblers is from 7.00am and doors open to the public at 10.00am. The show closes at 2.00pm. Hot and cold food available all day so its a great place to shake off the winter blues and meet friends old and new.

I'll start a list. Cavy pogo I hope your name is added mate

Sometimes yeah. In a pub more likely good old beer 

What's the matter with you all, I do drink you know lol  ;D ;D

Thank you to you all for the very warm welcome.

Thank you for the reg enquiry Sal but I think that you are right I believe that it's no longer with us. It's a pitty that you can't find out if its been scraped or not. I will have a dig arround for a picture at my mums house and scan it. I can't promise anything though.

Regards Steve.

Your welcome but it was me lol

Welcome to the club and that Ascona is lovely!

Thanks everyone!

Matt, if they were my pictures on there, I didn't post them as I'm not on Retro Rides!

I would happily purchase a Cavalier, but unfortunately the uni I'll be starting in September doesn't have any parking spaces for students

Lol, I've definatly seen that Cav and Golf pic and the P reg Cav. Sure it was RR but could be somewhere else. Oh well, welcome aboard pal

That's a cracking ad and deserves saving 

Welcome aboard!

I'm sure I've had a look through your pics on a Retro Rides 

That B is really smart!!  8)

Welcome to the club!! That looks a lovely example 

plus the saab cav is about to come alive soon and I need to spend some time on that.

Oooooh update please mate  8)

having seen Rabbits car in the flesh, its a proper time warp car and well worth a chat with the man, if your serious about a cav if you view Rabbits you will be driving home in it, by the way welcome to the site 

I can vouch for this too.

From reading the postings I see you're like me and like originality. I think it's the best way to remember these cars

Yep!  ;D

Hi mate and welcome aboard. Good luck with the search. Nice ones do turn up from time to time, you just have to have your ear to the ground and be quick 

loving the red one  8) 8)

Agreed! That's lovely!  8)
