During August and early September, double oh’ers participated in a series of events to conclude the summer season. Highlights included the Vantage Celebration at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon and the Silverstone Festival, where members joined a parade lap on the track to commemorate both our club's anniversary and those of the cars we drive. Additionally, the annual scheduling conflict between Salon Privé at Blenheim and the Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court was resolved this year, as the events were held on separate weekends.
In keeping with the spirit of competition we sent our beautiful people to Salon Privé and the beautiful cars to Hampton Court. The latter bringing home the silver in the form of The Club Trophy which was won by Darryl’s stunning Graber bodied Drophead DB2. See the pictures below.
For those of you still eager for more, there is a fun packed September ahead with Area 00 attending Goodwood Revival (with our US friends) and the International Concours Weekend in Austria. I think we need to give the Club and members who attended the special events for the Club’s 90th year a big round of applause or better still send them a big Area 00 thanks by post or email. I feel we have certainly done the anniversary justice and we may need to start thinking about how we can possibly better it for the big 100!
We have once again been selected to participate in the New Year’s Day Parade that has been rebranded the London Parade which is in its 40th year. If you are interested in getting dressed up in your party clothes early on New Year’s morning and waving to nearly half a million people from your car, please register your interest with me.
Just a reminder that our next meeting is tomorrow on Thursday 16th October at the RAC, please send a message if you would like more information or pop in if you are feeling social.
