Just a field owned by us, there will be a water supply and its only a very short walk to the house for the bathroom, although Andy may need to bring his spade after all, otherwise we'll have a queue forming pretty quickly

I've also been told today that we will have a journalist coming along who will hopefully be writing an article for one of the classic car mags, no pressure
Fantastic, great to have a mk4 coming
Plenty of pressure if you get 3 competing for different publications..... ) - no seriously, he is a perfect gent, and will absolutely respect other people's vehicles, and not be a silly sod. My Sisley isn't really right for offroading at the moment, hence the mk3, but I'd have no hesitation in letting any of the 3 I've invited use my car. 
At least one Freddy! I'm aiming for 3, but one definite so far.
We will be looking for people willing to let Richard loose with their cars - he'll want to take photos and do some driving for an article in Classic Car Weekly. Ideally mk1 but mk2 will be fine, and my mk3 will be available for any comparison work and as a camera car (might not be quite as bouncy as a mk2!!). I know Richard and he's no Clarkson - he's a really genuine chap (have to say that, as he does appear on here at odd moments!
I'm hoping some people will be happy to lend a car at different times over the weekend, to help them with any articles, and of course you get to see pics in print - also I'm sure we'll be able to get photos, which are likely to be significantly better than most of our snaps with camera phones!
Sounds great. Very happy to let Richard loose in my Mk1. If he's handy with the spannering as well as the journalism he can help get it ready!
Excellent, thanks. Didn't realise it was nearly ready! Wouldn't mind a go myself......!
I suspect Richard probably isn't the right person to help you. He'd write an excellent article on what he watched you doing though.
Yes definitely & to drive them. The main bit will be the off-roading ability I suspect, but it will be a general celebration of Panda's and the madness that goes with them, and that's not limited to the 4x4.
Lol. Nah was gonna chuck everything in the Punto
