Just got back myself - great day out, and good to be back in France. With hindsight if I'd have known I'd be taking my car I'd have done some preparation on it beforehand. Well, I'd have put some more CDs in, and given it a wash...
Am now ready for bed, so uploading photos can wait 'till the morning!

Timex and friends in the tunnel
Arrived!
Blue seems a popular Mk1 colour
No, the smoke isn't Timex, it's the Ourane behind
Mark and Hilary's valvers find some friends too

Entering the collection
BX styling model
BX coupe prototype
I suspect the designers of the C4 coupe were being lazy

Mk2 Estate - but where's the Mk1?
There it is, next to Mat's estate. As well as the one in the collection, there were only 3 estates there, and all were british!
14RE
I believe this is Xemes lovely car
The digit with the bumper strips from the rear - not convinced about them myself
Love these colours!

What a great day, shame we couldnt stay longer, being up for 40 hours without sleep really knocked me sideways but it was worth it, thanks to Chris (Xemes) who made us all so welcome and organised it.
See you at the 40th anniversary??
