Good stuff I thought it might have been you!! Cant believe the dash board pulls out when you give the Capri a bit of welly!!

Hey Dave, some damn good photos there! Dont think ill bother posting anymore! Loved the one of us as we were heading there!! So what time did you get home?? Bit of a pain with the feds grilling you tho

Was great to meet you too Gary, the Capri is loopy! You certainly made some exit from the car park! Made Sandy and me smile!!

OK one more photo, the Merry Band!!

Kinda tiny but it proves we were there!!

Post up what ya got John, I always like to see other pics!!

Yes I got home in and around 01:40 am...thank God the boat has some comfy seats, me and Scoty got on and put the heads down and were both out for the count!!

Aye the feds bit was the funniest, I would like to know his reasoning for questioning us...we both had our wooly masks well hidden & out of site

lol. It was probably 2 young lads in a Northern Irish registered car which would normally be enough to get you pulled by the law. Adrian thought we were going to spend the nightin the slammer lol. Our only crime was being Mad Max fans!! lol

Great photos John!! Have to agree Garys car was mental!!....what did he do on the way out of the car park?

Out of interest is there a for sale section on any site for uk based Aussie cars? Mad Max & RW era cars?
