@ Jasper: No Idea, I'm not planning any layout as such until I see the area and how many cars turn up.

Feel free to sort a banner out, but don't forget that we're going to have nearly 20-odd cars in the convoy this year!

Well, if an old Volvo 244GL (1983) in it's original state (so no special engine tricks, just the good old indestructable B23A) is worth seeing, I'll be joining. Maybe provide a corner for the 'classics'? I've seen a nice old Ford (orange-black) on the parking lot at EF13-EF14... And maybe some other furs might have an 'oldie' (A DS would be awesome, or an old Benz 380, or whatever that is older then 20 years) capable of driving them to EF?!?

I'd like to see the 244 join the gathering. I was going to bring The Volvo with me, but my latest acquisition, The Volvo 2 (a 1997 V70 2.5) has aircon and cruise control and is much better on the motorway than it ever could be:

:)

I remember seeing that orange Taunus at EF13. I was surprised it was still running, given the state it was in ;)

You'd be surprised on how many old Taunus' there still are, roaming around in the low-countries  8)

I've seen quite a few around the Dutch border with Germany, along with lots of pre-1981 Volvo 245s which looked showroom-fresh. Pity that it's very rare to see the Cortina, the Taunus' UK equivalent any more :(

For those interested in this event, there is now an informative topic in the "Programming" section of the forum, which includes the description that will be going into the conbook, and also some safety rules/guidelines, which won't be in the conbook due to space restrictions. Please be sure that you read these if you intend to come along, as they are for your safety as well as everyone else's :)

I think you'll "enjoy" the constant sound of that little maelstrom comming from your petrol-tank if you're going to drive it all the way over to EF  ;)

If I find the time, am I allowed to attend with my 600cc twowheeler? Or is it just cars, cars and even more cars?
