it looked the business Pete, well able for bumpy Athenry roads too, although I don't think we did Claire any favours by tearing off :D

Just realised that my photos are biased a bit towards the knarly SC, I'll be more equal next time...;)

It was a great first meet. I'm glad I brought the Mini because it was tough going keeping up with Padraig in the 356 and Pete in the SC :D

The SC looks amazing on the move - I've never seen so many people nearly fall over themselves trying to catch a second glimpse of it!
