Can't be worse than the Zimmer that won Car of the show a few weeks ago at a local.
What an abomination, even down to the gold plated four air horns and shiny bits. |

| This 110 wasn't even shiny. Some horrid matt camo job. A well-done camo job in all fairness, but that doesn't account for the fact it is still a lame camo job on a civilian station wagon Land Rover. Looked awful I am afraid! |

1st is right, 2nd was the Scimitar (MINE!), 3rd was a Marina Estate.
The organisers pretty much said to me I should have won, but the landrover owner brought a lot of mates who voted for him 
Never mind, 1st thing Ive ever won! lol (Though I dropped my glass tankard when I got home and smashed it to bits  )

I was on my own, so dodgy voting for the landrover or not I was chuffed with 2nd, as I never even enter the competitions unless its obligatory and people I dont even know must have voted
Next outing Oulton Park at the end of the month....
