CCC CX, XM and Xantia Rally 2012 - 7-9th September - FREE!

I did wonder what you were doing Katie! Glad you enjoyed it and good luck beating the issues.

[Gary]

Caption competition perhaps?

'Fancy meeting you under here!'

Mickey you really need to be awake for this bit!

[Mickey taker]

It's ok Matthew we can come out now, Sandre and her bloody raffle tickets have gone now

[Caffiend]

You're safe at the next event, I won't be caught out and will decline the dubious honour of being one of way too many people trying to offload tickets (apologies to those who had already been asked by the other 3 people flogging 'em ...)

[Paul296]

I seem to remember Matthew has an excellent track record were raffle tickets are concerned?

[MULLEY]

Not this time But i was tight this time & only bought one lot, unlike others who also won naff all. I've only ever won twice in 7yrs, the last time was the 1st prize, BINGO

[Mickey taker]

5 strips and bigger all to show for it lol, can't believe it took four or five tickets being drawn before anyone took the nickleback tickets

[Mathius]

We only had one line and won a mini dent puller.

[puddock]

We had to leave before the raffle

So did we. I usually win alcohol - which is annoying as I don't drink (though Rachel approves!).

[Citroening]

Managed to sort a few pictures out - here's some of the Saturday.

This little C1 caught my eye when it rolled in - sporting that twin exit exhaust it didn't sound bad at all, especially with it's 1/2 a V6...



The start of the glorious weather, and cars slowly filtering in.



Good to see Mr Emblem's GTi Turbo again that he's had for a very long time - bought from Roger "back in the day" and still wears the CX Centre Plates. Aftermarket Wheels are due to the TRX Tyres cost, although original T Slots are in the garage...





Some more XMs...



A different view-point from the back of the field, note Andy filling up his Xantia!



This ZX Volcane 3 Door was a cracking car to see - didn't manage to chat with the owners I don't think but a lovely lovely car...



Mr Seabrook's Green Tiger BX stands out a bit in the line-up...



The starts of the formation of the convoy drive to Bletchley Park. We had 39 cars start off, and 35 made it... Never saw the other four...



And some more at the back including Chris' V6 and Dean's Activa:



Convoy (I agree with Andy's comments that we should have had the theme song playing...):





A quarter of the line-up at Bletchley Park:



Another quarter:



Matthew's XM V6:



Will's XM 2.1 SD with others behind and the mansion:



Steve's C6 looking particularly nice:



Another part of the line-up:



Jim's Activa, Dom's Safari, Will's XM 2.1 SD and Penny's XM:



Jim's Activa:



Back on-site, and Steve and Ron's C6s:



Matthew taking Chris' V6 for a spin:



Maurice's and Penny's near identical XMs:



French registered CX 20:



Dean's and Jim's Activae:



One corner of the camping area:



A few Gs:



Nice sunset above the C6s:



Couldn't resist a few night shots again this year, this one was at 21:10 Saturday Night:



Sunday pictures will follow once they've been sorted out...

[Philip Chidlow]

If this doesn't inspire more to take part next year, nothing will. Excellent, thanks.

[Tim Leech]

Indeed Phil, those non ccc members who dont see the value in the membership who attended should maybe reconsider?

[Paul296]

I was so snowed under with work I just couldn't make it this year - still crying into my tea here!

my 'buy' of the rally!

looks lovely! and the blue tint is a perfect match for the mauritius blue of the car - had the sunroof open on the way to work and no buffeting inside at all, so a result!
