~nomad~ :would be great, and I would be very happy to see it. Traditionally though, FF is smaller for FT than Fitp. A challenge then!

We do try our best to have a good stand that people are happy on, glad that so far everyone seemed happy with it this year.

Really it doesn't matter how big it is as long as everyone who does come enjoys it, but more should come and join in the fun!


You should see the ZSOC, theres been complaints over there similar to what happened a couple of years ago. Proof that first come first served is the best way forward. Then its only the fault of the driver if they aren't at the front of the stand :)


Defo works best, you cant please all of the people all of the time :lol: I don't understand why they care on ZSOC thou, dont they all look the same? :lol: :lol: :lol:

LOL my girlfriend or the ginger?

im guessing my missus she loves them lol


was an awsome day, shuan i spoke to you briefly too :wink:

stand looked amasing i thinks, my favorite was that unsung mk5 escort with the Zetec turbo in it, i was amased at the responce to my mk4, considering its a mk4 llama

im also anticipating ford fair, should be even better and ill get to see what the 1.8 can put down the 0-60 strip :Q

Was a great day ...... and weekend.

The 1144 miles, several fuel stops, too much junk food, sun burn on my forehead, meeting new people, meeting old friends (yes Andymac ... you are old! but Shaun and Paul beat us .... hahahahahahahahaha) are all proof :D

Well done everyone, the FT stand looked spot on this year. In fact, for the second year running, I was really gutted the Capri wasn't there to be a part of it :(

Big crunks to Dave & his stand-organising elves for making the stand look so good - truly representative of the diversity and awesomeness of cars on the site, I feel.

Wish I could have spent more time on-stand chilling with you guys but these days, enjoyable though it is, it's still a work-day for me!

Anyway, well done everyone and congrats on a great display. :)
My name is Alex. I used to have a Capri. I don't anymore. But I'm still called Capri.

So so so happy with the response! I pledge to always be awake and well enough to organise the stand as well in future!

Was pleased with the diversity on stand tbh, we have a good mix of cars, and at a show aimed at fiestas I think its better to have that, with a few different models etc, and not just lines of one type of fiesta.

The escort belonged to a friend of Maxs, and has been featured in PF in the past it turned out. What a car!

It was a good show, well impressed that I actually needed the sun cream that I took with me :)

Still, best part of the weekend was getting a ride in the Focus RS, thank you Fezzy Turbo! Even if we are burning with jealousy! :D
