Yesterday a few friends and I decided to have an early morning blast up to Inverurie and grab ourselves a V8 Breakfast at the Fennel Restaurant.

My friends for the day were an Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 Quattro

I have to say that the zed looked great and performed really well, it certainly didn’t disappoint me despite the others motors having slightly more horses :D . The only negative being how quiet my exhaust sounded compared to the R8 and Astons hypnotic sounds :cry:

The Fennel is well known to Scottish based members and has been the place to stop off for a breakfast on forum runs in the past, if you have never been and happen to be in the area then it is certainly worth a visit as the food is superb. The restaurant for those that don’t know it is a popular place at weekends for petrol heads to head for and which attracts some awesome cars both new and old alike. I thought I would share our day along with a few photos I managed to take, only a few as we were too busy driving. https://www.facebook.com/TheFennel http://www.fennelrestaurant.co.uk/gallery?s=v8-breakfast

The Fennel's owner is a true petrol head and heres a picture of him in his lovely AC Cobra CRS

Total mileage for the day was 317 miles and well worth every penny spent on petrol :D
 
That's pretty exotic machinery your with Nick - no wonder you keep the Zed clean! Audi's got the best parking spot :lol:

It's great to have a place like that to meet or head to - something we need in Newcastle - plenty of meeting places for motorcycles don't know of any for cars.

Hope to see you this weekend or next. :thumbsup:

:driving: :thumbsup:

Looks like a nice little jaunt.

He was giving a few people a quick blast around the town, I think that is his chefs girlfriend
 
Thanks John, superb roads and the weather was good so even manaed to get some roof down time as well, something the other 3 cars could only dream about :lol:
 
It was a great run out, there were a few Cobras which turned up at the Fennel, one was a 1962 model and all sounded lovely. Incidently, all the guys I was with are ALSO OWNERS of a Cobra themselves, lucky devils is what I say :driving:
