[Pooh]

Those stone chips will be gone when the repair is done.

True, then I can start collecting them all over again

The front of mine is not looking too fantastic at the moment, I used some colour turtle wax today to try and cover some of them up, worked to an extent but not perfect....................I can feel a re-spray coming on.

Nothing like being a collector previous picture here. That was four months ago, the collection has grown since than.

Respray [and new roof needed.]

 

[LittleRedB]

A bit more advanced than mine but I am not far behind you! That's the problem with driving the b every day.........

 

[merv]

Hummmm, I'm a little envious. Would love to say that I'd be joining you guys, but alas, I'm stranded up North.

I prolly need to start my own B club in Finland (the Suomalainen Barchetta Klubbi in Finnish). At least I've noticed that there's one Silver and one Red (hardly you passing through Tampere city LRB?) model in town. My better half just informed that there's also a green car in town. Lets see if I can find a few friends for Zippy (that's the name for my car as the reg is "ZPY").

Here's to bumping into you guys today :slayerit's July 6th 00:25 in Finland now).

Have a good day Lads n Lassies I'll be thinking about you whilst lying on my back on't forget lots of piccies please so I can at least see what the day was like. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rain stays away...

 

[LittleRedB]

Well that was fun!!!

Thanks all for coming, nice run through the Sussex countryside followed by the most expensive fried breakfast I have ever eaten!!

Thankfully we had about an hour and a half before the heavens broke, and boy did they break!

It was really nice to meet a couple of new faces as well, hopefully we have recruited another couple to the forum but more importantly talked them out of selling their b!

Ricky, the extra money to make the b 'mint' was well spent, really nice looking original car

Best moment for me was as we arrived, Lord March was stood on the racetrack as we all crossed, on seeing the line of Barcherra's shouted 'ah the Barchetta club' then continued to do this....... :worship:

Despite the weather I had a thoroughly enjoyable morning, thanks again to all who came, hopefully you also had a good time!

Here are a couple of tasters while I upload my other photo's;

Despite the weather it was an excellent day out and it was good to meet you guys with such fine Barchettas. Hopefully I will be able to get the the Ace next month. I am very pleased that I met Mark (Lima) who told me about this forum and the meeting today. Only joined this forum a week ago but already finding the articles and tips really helpful.

Sorry about that Other side of the circuit with a coffee try to keep warm in July!

Note to self - must try harder next time.

A couple more Fiats and a little something else where the owner must have got soaked on the way home!

 

[Pooh]

Had great fun today despite the weather.
Must remember the route down to Goodwood and take the same route on a nice sunny day - If we ever have one at a weekend that is.
It was good to meet you all and look forward to the next meet or drive out.

 

[Alan.D]

Some very fine machinary and an excellent Barchetta line up 8 in all and all shining like new pins.

BTW Lee I zoomed right into the pic with your car are you loosing a bit of oil? there is a bit of a fresh patch underneith??

 

[LittleRedB]

Don't think so but I will check this morning. There were a few puddles when it first showered that ran off and settled under the car and there was also some oily muddy stuff on the floor so it could be that but best check just to be sure!!

 

[KC3]
