There was also a minor, but quite destructive, explosion in the centre box, which got professionally bodged and bandaged.

Stunning shots! And a properly bodged exhaust :p

Also, I love the fact that 6 out of 8 cars at the cottage are roadsters!

I’ll make it to one of these eventually. Need to finish this Year Or So Of Misery that I’m working on financial independence in.

If any of the Dutch bring some Grolsch Herfst Bok over next year, I’ll be there. ;)

You should’ve told us sooner. I’m sure someone could’ve brought some.

Having said that, all these cars are beyond dirty. Would you be able to endure the sight?

That stuff is my fondest memory of living in Holland.

I could survive, I wouldn’t of slept because I would be sneaking outside in the evening or as soon as the cars had parked up and started cleaning them.

Yes, I’ve done it before. I really am that sad. Lol.

BvdV already suggested a meet for those who stayed at home and now regret it.

55€ for three days sounds reasonable for the LMC.

DutchieDC2R > FSI 03/30/2018 at 08:13

Yep, it does! Im thinking of sleeping in the car for the 3 days that Im there. Otherwise a tent should do. And if it really becomes necessary, a couple of towns over should have a hotel/lodge..

When the 2018 trip is done, Ill post it in our whatsapp group.

You do realize this is a reveal Ive been waiting for for over a year, right? :p

Don’t get too excited though

Its your first car man, thats all the reason I need to get excited about it....:P

I was honestly considering giving you a ring on my way home to see if you fancied a mid-afternoon beer, but a crashed caravan on the M6 made me detour across to the A1 instead.

I managed to get the top down twice! I had to wear two coats though.

That would of been good.

Lol. There’s been a few incidents around here in the last few days, add to the ruddy roadworks and Carlisle is gridlock at peak times and a maze at others.

You sound more enthusiastic than I do hahaha. Just kidding. I rely on my gut feeling which hasn’t yet come at the cars I have had a look at or consider.

I’m surprised that you even fit in it with the top closed, haha!

It’s actually really spacious inside. There’s even room past the pedals to stretch your legs on a long journey :D

I think my MG F would have given you palpitations :S I don’t think it has been cleaned since Christmas 2016...

That shot of the Paj, B and 5-series is stunning ;)

Oh, and I have learnt that gloves are a must for top-down X1/9-ing in March...

Svend > BiTurbo228 - Dr Frankenstein of Spitfires 04/03/2018 at 07:20

Nah, it would of probably given me sleep deprivation as I’d of sneaked out when everyone had gone to bed and washed it by torch light (yes, I have done that before, Lol).

Aside from you being a great guy to have there in general, that was another reason you were missed ;)

Duurtlang did clean the BX though! It hasn’t looked as good as it does now in about 3 years!

I wouldn’t of been driving. So would of came down to what to of brought.

Yeh man... I had fingerless gloves on and I was still swapping hands on the wheel every 5 minutes. Totally worth it though, can’t drive a roadster without getting the top off at least once!

Exactly.

We’ll convert Phil soon enough ;) poor form I thought...

I was so disappointed. 5 mins to the petrol station and then back up went the rag-top

I know. Decidedly poor form.

We’ll get him with the Midget though. Both me and Matt get it. Soon as the summer rolls around he’ll have no choice but to bow to peer pressure ;)
