Thornfalcon classic car meet. Taunton Somerset

Post by Dav the wheel nut » Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:06 am

Weather is looking good for Sunday so why not pop to this event. linky
There are over 1000 cars on show.
This is a meet rather than a show so your car does not have to be mint to attend.
It's all very laid back just drive in, park up, have a look round and meet some like minded people. You can arrive and leave when you like and its free.
I'll be there if you want to here what a back box delete sounds like :wink:

Highly recommended, loads of cars and usually plenty of variety from classics to modified, sports and the odd supercar.
I'l probably be there (unless it p****** down) :thumbsup:

I think 4 of the Bristol Zeds are going to conclude our breakfast run at this Meet tomorrow.

07:30 start from Bath, via Cheddar, Glastonbury, then onto the Meet after a good hearty breakfast. :driving:

We'll see you there whoever's going ?

The boys eventually got to this event and wow, what a display !

Everything from a Vauxhall Viva, to Ford Cosworths, Caterhams and even lovely Honda NSX's. Almost any car you could imagine was there. which brought back nostalgic memories - especially the Morris Marina Coupe !!!

Z4 representation from Zedwheels with his Alpina and Dav-the-wheel-nut's was there too.

I think our official photographer (Phill45110) will be posting the evidence shortly....

Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Ahh... That was yours !
We did wonder who still had a whippy and then nearly converted it for you !!! :D

Seriously. Both yours and Dav-the-Wheel-nuts Zeds looked in tip-top condition. Well done.
