Just spent the weekend at this event and had a very good time, spotted a few things of interest to me, especially this, anyone know who's it is?it was for sale at £1200, Perfect paint and a generally very tidy example of the TZD.

It was a very good weekend with even more diversity than last year, Tesla was there with the model X making it dance to music and there was even a pair of Sinclare C5's trundling about.

I'm definitely hoping so Dean I want to do a cycle tour of the island... I plan to catch the ferry at Lymington with my bike and take it from there...

Lymington is in easy cycling distance of where I regularly stay when in that neck of the woods... I was there all last week... Had a great time too...

The new forest is a pretty bit of the world, the round the island ride is very nice too have done it a good few times now following the coastal roads, there are some very nice views and eateries.

I love the New Forest Dean and on Saturday I rode in the big cycle sportive around it... It was just fantastic I feel very at home down that way...

I'm very keen to do this one next year

My parents used to take me down the new forest with the dogs each weekend when i was little so i find it feels very homely.
I think you will love the island Jim, the route they have is pretty good and now most of the southern population is free of rabies you should be safe

Tis a Fiat 128 Sport, the early one with 4 round headlamps, i think it's a really pretty car. The Strada's are lovely, there was a matching pair there.
