Out came the sun lol

[Dan Stanley]

Ive been to 3 different locations to fill up the borrowed Volvo estate with as many pieces of rusty car tat that Ive stashed away over the last ten years, so that I can auto jumble to pay for the Gaz suspension Ive bought for my 'loon! You wouldn't believe the amount Ive crammed in it! Hope I sell it all on the first day so that I can enjoy the rest of the show.

Dig deep guys, I need the monies! lol

[joff-turbo-nova]

Well just arrived on the stand. Im the first here. So the stand is currently the PMG (Performance Meriva Group )
