    I never knew that but most times a low start never gets anywhere near the true selling /wanted price .....Cheers

    Ebay

    .........Another niggle with ebay when sellers start with 99p but the item is worth say 6 to 7 grand why not start at 5 grand its obviously not selling for say 1500 quid
  3. Just got in ill have a wash off get tidy n have a ride over at about half 6 ....had a ride over last month n enough cars to make it worth while
  4. So when i get to the entry gate can i say im on the OSF stand and ther'll direct me over or do i need some sort of pass or will i just have to park up in the classic ?? parking area ......

    Jenson deserved the win n it just goes to show the dont give up attitude really does pay off
  6. Again someone elses pride n joy robbed , Santa Pod is getting a bit of a reputation for this type of thieving it seems to be virtually every biggish event a mate had a pair of 4 barrel carbs stolen from there a while ago and off course then there was the blower for Henry Hirise now a complete and very distinctive car what are the security doing Hopefully the car will be recovered in a not to damaged state fingers crossed
  7. I didnt realise it was about what we do or dont get upto in our cars i thought it was a question about what had happened ??......Re the driving i think we all have fun with our cars especially as there rear wheel drive if you get my Drift ,
  8. Great pics , Thanks
  9. If a sticker off this was avaible then Darren could get 1 and stick it on his car so "The Touchers" could compare
  10. I was there last night the car park was full of OSF's inc my van everyone having a chat /look etc then around 10.15pm the manager ?? of the cafe starts shouting everyone out everyone out ,that was inside the cafe in a panic type way then around half 10 he tells the car park lads to clear the car park ??? i think it all started with a load of fools pelting a police car by the roundabout with bottles n coins etc i was told about this just after the incident ??? i never actually saw this then guessing around an hour later Police everywhere inc in the petrol stations parked up (i had to get fuel).........so i would say nothing really to do with the make of car (Ford) night , hopefully it will get sorted ive been doing the various nights at the Ace for over 20 years

    EBAY

    I noticed this a few weeks ago with a seller being about 5 miles away so asked could i collect reply came back NO pickup only posting and the postage was 40 quid so didnt bother ........true postage price was around 6 quid
  12. So if i just turn up in my Escort van and pay the £6 can i put my van within the show or will it have to park in the public car park .........i used to attend these in the 80's/90's when they were in Cheltenham when i owned real RS/AVO Fords
  13. OK mate probably around 2 years since i ran at Shakey so i stand corrected though attend various events there throughout the year and it still makes it a cheap day or even weekend track wise ......and yea the pit/track area seems to work spot on ...
  14. Another reason i never go down the strip at the Pod again all about money , go to Shaky and its 15 quid to run all day any show and alot friendlier......im just not a pod lover thats 1 of the reasons i dont take part in the OSF racing as most events are at Santa pod .......shame
  15. Thats up from last year i paid 7 on the gate thats 1 of the reasons im not a fan of Santa pod its all about money and its us people with the cars that make these shows i camp over at alot of weekend shows as alot doo and its usually free , and them camping areas around the pod are the roughest uneven i think ive ever had the displeasure of pitching my tent in ....ill give it a miss this year
  16. Its a totally new car everything is new hes on about taking it to the states and running it on pump gas and beating the yanks with it
  17. Snap !!
  18. Im not a fan of undertaking but there should also be a fine for sitting in the middle lane of a motorway doing about 50 to 60 when the inside lane is empty .....the lane blockers always seem to be oblivious to anything around them and usually in new cars
  19. With all these colour changes soon i wont be able to see any words at all ,
  20. Id leave it as it is like mentioned above it makes it a stand out combination
  21. Yea ill be there as usual rain or shine
  22. Took me old Pop for a ride out to The Butty run around 100 mile round trip put a big smile on my face n made me rethink about selling it met aload of mates n we all cruised back in convoy n went back to a mates for tea , biscuits n silly chatter .......it was a good day
  23. Yea the previous owner of BAD 105E use to run it at the Outlaws doo's at Bovingdon n it really did fly the owner used to drive it hard
  24. It has been done when i was a teenage n we all had MK1 Escorts a mate of mine did it to be different as we all jacked the backs up on ours he raised the front of his it was very unstable and ended up in a the scrap yard I dont know / cant remember what he did but i know the engineering / fabrication of the mod was agriculteral
