Please say you are all with the PistonHeads crowd and we'll get everyone parked up together rather than in the random car park.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Was a good day out. Didn't see anyone I recognised but the s1 was in the car park all day. Saw a good few s2s, in the car park, and 3 in the pistonheads park. Saw the astray too and bob in the vx.

Some stunning cars there :-)

Great Day. Good to catch up with you Mass.
Quite a few SE'ers about judging by the presence in the car park :thumbsup

A few snaps of the day:

Chris, spotted your S1 in the car park, that's a seriously eye catching colour.

I went in the afternoon and parked up with pistonheads guys in line with the other S2's
Great to have a close wander amongst all the cars. You realise how big the supercars especially the lambo's really are - aventador is all sharp angles and looked good in white. Saw my first production Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione and liked some of the subtleness of it but didn't think black showed it off the best.
As I was taking roof off in the car park the 8C, 458 and Aventador all past but didn't do them justice on the way out with the 5mph limit, would have been great to hear the noise they could all make :(

Great day out. some cracking machines. Loved the F40 and a certain orange lambo
Prettiest thing I saw all day was the bright green S1 in the carpark.

It does stand out a little ;)

Yeah, we did a walk around the car park as there is always some nice stuff hanging around, then I was standing talking to my dad by my car and we saw you leave. Sometimes the car park attractions are better than some of those in the show :)

Hi Derek. I spotted it again this afternoon too. In Edinburgh airport car park.

Excellent colour choice. :thumbsup
