Brilliant day very hot - lots of classic cars - not as much of public as on previous occassions maybe other things were on!
Guest of honor and presenter of prizes at the end was her High Commissioness (is that the word you use- these days for a woman High Commissioner) of UK based at Homewood Karori Wellington, who looked like she borrowed one of the Queens hats and would only be around 35! - She brought along her Jag XF Reg DC1 which of cause was driven for her
Rare cars there were: Armstrong-Siddeley Typhoon Coupe Austin A125 Sheerline 1951c Broadspeed Fastback Mini 1967 #28 of 28 built Ford Cortina MK2 2 door 1500 Crayford Convertible 1968 Leyland P76 Targa Florio V8 (I not sure if real or replica) Marcos 3.0 GT Volvo engine ! with British Reg number on NZ white plates Reliant Scimitar GT Coupe Rolls Royce 20-25 Sports 4 door Saloon 1934 -Barker! body
Peoples choice award(2nd time its won it) went to Lynx Jaguar D Type Replica owned by Don Ryder of Wellington
The broadspeed minis are pretty cool, they had one racing up at manfield a few years back
I'm gutted i was planning on going out to it, but i managed to remember it was on about 6pm sunday night. :(
