Cup looks great on the f1s.

Good shots.

 

[Christopher]

R26.R

<3

 

[Matthew]

The R26R was mint, awesome colour too.

 

[Duffman_172]

Some good shots there, looks like a good meet!

 

[Ash.]

R26R ftw! It looks mint.

 

[welshname]

All the cars look mint.

Never realised you're from Halifax. Anywhere near MCD Vaux conversions?

 

[Gandi69]

My monitor must be s**t, could have sworn that first one was a bean! All look like tidy cars, got a soft spot for the two tone VTS though

 

[Knuckles]

great shots i had no idea they made the .r in RB... or is it a respray?

 

[markhinton]

Cool pics, looks like a good meet

great shots i had no idea they made the .r in RB... or is it a respray?

That's standard. Lunar grey and racing blue were the only new colours to be brought on to the R26.R iirc.

 

[cafcross]

I didn't realise that the wheels on the Raider are the same as the R26.R

 

[Matthew]

All the cars look mint.

Never realised you're from Halifax. Anywhere near MCD Vaux conversions?

Its about 1 mile from my house

I actually live in Sowerby village which just overlooks it down in the valley lol

My monitor must be s**t, could have sworn that first one was a bean! All look like tidy cars, got a soft spot for the two tone VTS though

Trophies allways look like beans if the levels are even just abit out.

The more I drive the Saxo, the more it amazes me lol

 

[welshname]

I'm really starting to want one. It's bad lol.

And very close to MCD Vaux then.

 

[ekaJ]

Love the saxo, I feel ashamed.

 

[jenic]

You shoot in raw and still can't get the levels right for that mint looking Trophy

Really do love Hughs Megane, lots of want for it!

 

[hhh182]

Cheers lad!
Yeah there's not many RB R's, originally 15 in uk.

 

[Matthew]

I'm really starting to want one. It's bad lol.

Lol they are great little cars to be fair, mine just needs raising alittle at the back and some new shocks...

Its dangerous at the min on the OEM ones...

What is MCD then mate, I think my brothe has delivered packages to them in the past?

Love the saxo, I feel ashamed.

Why? Pound for pound they cant be bettered in terms of "fun motoring".

Lol its your car, its faded over the years, not my camera

Yeah it really was mint, although I dont know if I could cope with the basic-ness of it day to day.

I loves a radio!

 

[welshname]

What is MCD then mate, I think my brothe has delivered packages to them in the past?

It's a garage that specialises in Vauxhall Conversions.

So Corsa's with C20XE's or LET's or Z20LET's etc. Mental stuff they do, even V6 conversions.

Some absolute weapons are made in those premises.

 

[Matthew]

Sounds like a little aladdin's cave! Lol

 

[dezmondo]

Cup looks great on the f1s.

Good shots.

Was thinking the same! The R26.R looks as mad as ever!

 

[hhh182]

Cup with wheels and boot stripped was immaculate like!

 

[Matthew]

The cup looks immense under the lights!

 

[Stead]

Looks like a nice selection of cars but the cup and VTS stand out for me. Both look immaculate

[Will.]

Yh. He hasn't always been a dot

 

[Matthew]

I used to be under matt8586 a few years back.

We met at the North Yorkshire drive a few years ago,

Yep, I was with the girlfriend in her Cooper S

 

[Jamie_182]

some nice cars there! love the R26R.

 

[jenic]

Mine haven't come out well at all lol, combination of high iso that I didn't realise at the time and messing about with them in the new iPhoto app has made them really grainy

Bit gutted, I wanted to try a few different settings and use the tripod but it was a bit busy to be messing about.

I feel your pain Mike.

Really disappointed with mine. Didn't realise the ISO was so high at the time and they are soooo grainy

Must remember to bring it right down next time!

 

[hhh182]

Some nice pics!

Not sure if that's good or not hah it was covered wax that wasn't even properly finished being surfaced and had covered 100miles before Halifax lol

 

[not normal dan]

Some cracking photos there, that saxo of yours really does look clean hard to find an un abused example now days

 

[Matthew]

Cheers
