so took bonni to the show, and to cut a long story short, there are 4-5 land rovers there every year for the last 10, none restored just in tatty original condition, 3 are series 1's, one was a series 2a and the other was a series 1, 107, and one of the series 1's won best 4X4, nothing short of a joke really, iv emailed the organisers to ask why :lol::lol::lol:

 

Enjoyed every minute of this thread, thank you :good:

 

Why didnt you win a prize?....... because they all give prizes to their mates, seen it so many times, sad trophy hunters :lol:

 

I show cars often, but I leave a note on them to say 'not to be judged' [been there done that]

 

You did what you set out to do, you are a winner in the true sense :yahoo: well done

 

We you started this project I cautioned you not to get too much money in the car, I thought you might get your fingers burnt, I have a series two that had just shy of £20k spent on it and I paid £11k for it, you can soon loose money if you dont keep an eye on it!

but you didnt loose out, you made, result!

Cheers bubble. Yes made a few quid but the real bonus was sticking at it and achieving what I set out to achieve. But without the PW members help I'd probably given in. I got enough stick as it was. Imagine if I had to report that I'd given in and sold it as a going concern.
