Blokko Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Possibly my last-but-one Caterham related outing before I sell the car and move out to Boston. Billed as the biggest kit car show in the world - they were expecting 4,000 kit cars on the day. Here is a link to some pics I took yesterday - https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10201807510738742.1073741843.1511311827&type=1&l=3125210d7d Named the album "The Good, the Bad and the Fugly". Some great kits out there, but also some monsters! There were also quite a few non-kit cars about of interest (some Brit classics as well as some American metal). Great day out - weather held (I have the sunburn to prove it ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVP66S Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 The blue car with the square nose and the huge VW logo reminds me of John Pertwee's 'Bessie' (Doctor Who circa 1970). And is that a kit of a Morris Minor? Hmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 And is that a kit of a Morris Minor? Hmmm... Nope. I think this was one of the original cars there on the day. There seem to have been more non-kit cars there this year than in previous shows. Amongst others I saw few TVR's (old and more recent), some VX220's and Elise's, some early UK Ford's (Escort's mainly), Porkers as well as the US cars (which I presume are original).

Automoda Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Now that would have been a great time for me. So much awesome stuff! I always wanted a Stratos but they're just too expensive to put together. A few of those cars I dont recognize at all and they're pretty good looking. And of course there's the ones that um. Need some style tips just like this guy: http://marcuspcannon.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/herb-tarlek.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowss7 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I went to Stoneleigh and the Cadwell Park trackday, about 13 years ago. Awesome events. I think there were 235 or so Caterhams at the event and I don't think two were exactly alike! If you have the chance to attend some day I highly recommend it.

escondidoron Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I always wanted a Stratos but they're just too expensive to put together. I saw this one at a track day at Zolder last fall. I have no idea about the cost to purchase / assemble. But it was very quick and it sure was a beauty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
