Amy at the Camberley Car Show 2014

The weather panned out really nice. I was keeping an eye on it, as earlier in the week Saturday had forecast potential rain. Of course I wouldn't have been the only one doing the same thing! Got up early, uncovered Amy and gave her a wash and polish for her first pre-booked outing. Proudly ready to go:


Me and son going first thing in the morning, set off at 9.00am with a view to being in place in good time for the official start of 10.00am.

All day show, lots of other cars to look at, in town centre so coffee and McDonalds through the day.


So we basically parked up and then kept ourselves amused.

Somewhat dwarfed by a big Chevvy pickup right next to us! Other side was a very nice, pretty rare, Trident Clipper V8. (that's what the badge said anyway!)


Views down the high street













Isabelle and the wife came along to take a look part way through the afternoon, Isabelle then stayed with Robbie and I until the end. I think she enjoyed being around for a little while and seeing (and hearing!!) the cars set off home.  :
Another brill day as hoped and planned for. In summary Robbie had a great day and his comment on the journey home was "Good times" or something to that effect, it's his little saying that he comes out with now and then. Isabelle also enjoyed a quick foray into the word of classic car shows, she was more than happy to pose and grin next to Amy:


From the point of view cars, Amy provided another smooth journey, all mechanicals seeming very good, no niggles whatsoever, she did me proud.

At the show there were over a hundred cars too look at, quite a large selection of Austin and Morris vehicles. Made a point of photographing all of them and posting to Facebook here: Austin and Morris cars at Camberley Car Show 2014!!

Bit traitorous I suppose, but I especially liked this beautiful MG Magnette:


Next show, Cobham Heritage Day in a couple of weeks! Looking forward to it already!
