a massive thank you to everyone that attended today :J

got to meet several new faces and made a couple of new members B)

the weather was absolutely amazing and santa pod was in full swing as usual :driver:

I think I was a bit premature earlier in the year thinking the event wasn't going to be as good due to the date change but the numbers had increased for nearly every club there (except ours, lowest turn out yet but we had 12-14 cars attend B) ) but having two big gtgs so close to each other doesnt help so something we will have to consider next year going forward B)
i didnt mind though it left space on the stand for the Porsche :P

I only took a few but here are my efforts

What a great bunch of rear ends.

Big ron seemed not quite himself this year, the ad campaign shown in steves pic ( Posted Image ) has left him tired and exhausted.

Low roller

450bhp engine producing something like 160 on the rolling road. Great car though and lovely owners, nice "why not" attitude towards it all.

Mine is G554, black with the 16v kit and the amg ducktail, boot full of crap, rear full of crap from germany, owner full of crap, no back seats. Oh, and an odd silver evoII on (spare wheel).

James has the 16v almost the same as jeremys only the engine works and the suspension doesnt. Sorry james, cant connect you to a username. Dont be put off by the huge list.

57bob has the glassy smooth Smoke Silver paintwork and breathtaking interior.

merc190 temporarily has some red audi/porch.

'Uk Merc Man' has the 2.5-16 with the absolutely SPOTLESS engine bay and webber cabs. When I stood near I could actually feel the dirt getting sucked off me attracted to the cleanliness. Top job, can you come and clean my kitchen for me please ?

BigRon owns the toilets, and anybody he chooses who has dared to enter them. If you enter the showers, god help you.

Great to meet you all chaps, see you all (and more) next year. Hopefully more mods will actually have 190s lmao


Sorry to the homeward convoy for random lane changes, I was in need of petrol, and so was the car.

sdmpmr2 owns the red one missing from my photos, with the funny accelerator pedal.

Shaky mobile footage of the jetcar, but to be honest, you simply cannot get a feel for this through any footage. It is hard to film with your fingers in your ears. The buildup, the air getting sucked away followed by the heat dropping on everything and a silly low number coming up on the time board.

is it a cosworth bodied car just doesn't hjave the extended arches, from the kit? my car looks the same and was loving the engine choice. how is the performance from this? would love something bigger than my 2.0 auto

Do you know how big is possible, i'd love to fit the c63 engine but not sure will fit?

my mate runs a e30 bmw with M5 engine & running gear, oh and 4x4

so want to keep up?

M117 fits but it's not a performer although enough poke to go a bit crazy. 55 engine apparently fits but steering needs to be redone to rack and pinion, oh and it's tight but it fits.

Ive got the arces just need spraying and putting on.
the engine nice and smooth.the power is good but if you mate has the 3.2 m3 engine theres no chance of keeping up with him.
ur gonna need the 3.6 amg to have a chance.
The power on this is on par with the new golf gti 2011 model 250bhp

You can fit v8 but you need to modify a lot of things.exhaust manifolds need to go around the steering box.bulk head on it may need some redesigning.
I was going to fit the 560 sec engine but would have still been trying to fit it

my friend is running an s62 M5 V8, from an e39, i think it has 394bhp

it used to have M3 CSL engine and that was scary to be in

need to do some proper thought re engine swap, maybe engine from 230 compressor

The only way your gonna keep up with your mate is if you put a 5.5 kompressor in, otherwise forget about it.
