Not sure-the car is pretty complete but we have 'gathered' some spares already-she may be interested. Let us know on Sunday what you have and she can decide from there.

Hi, yeah definately coming. I would like to buy one ticket. Is it possible for us to meet somewhere firsthand as I have a habit of getting lost. I was thinking of the car wash on the left after the roundabout heading towards frome?

The pub down the road is called the Canards and the carwash is called magic L&E. I have sent both Cliff and Barmy my mobile numbers.

That police car was very nice, it is a replica. I took a few pics of it. I think the bloke that owned it said that it was built for the police though.

It was nice to meet you Cliff and David today. Your cars made mine look very scruffy! Hope you both got home ok.

It was done with the help of Essex Police, and its now finished too the approval of the Essex police museum.
