It was a great day out, thanks all of those who organised it.
We had a fun journey there doing 45mph all the way down the M6 in convoy behind a series 11! On the way back I didn't bother going with them, I was happily cruising at 70.
Anyway, I spotted a lovely yukon grey four-door at the show which then won 1st prize in it's category, it's certainly inspired me to get some work done on Sidney!

Great pictures, there are some lovely cars, but it is also nice to see some that are not quite perfect but for their owners to put them in the show they are their pride and joy

That was me!
Was a great day out - well done to the BMMOC who worked tirelessly to make it the success it was. Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens was a fantastic venue. The garden tour was really interesting, too.

I agree, Moggy owners should be encouraged to show their cars whatever condition they are in.
