Nice one Hans.
Was a great day, and a great spot right in the middle of the action - just up from the restaurant.
Will post up some pics soon.
@Scott560 was great to see a silver Lude stalking me in my rear view mirror

It was great to see you guys again and meet you for the first time Scott
Made such a difference to last year in the miserable rain There was a huge turn out in comparison

Uploaded a bunch of random shots from the day - see link above.
For those that use FB, you can use it as you would Photobucket - open photo and copy image location, etc.
The Preludes from the day...
Parked at the Hotel and somewhat paranoid, hence the spot picked.
On to the meet point, Totton and the Morrisons car park, 0730hrs...
@NafemanNathan and his Peugeot themed Prelude, this time arriving without any breakdowns (Really epic work on the headlight/bonnet mods, proper craftmanship )
Ray, (my Dad), just checking his phone and the current year...
@Scott560 and @RattyMcClelland turned up, (actually they where there before me).
And on to the stand...
Totally missed the 1st Gen, but spotted this 4th, anyone on here??
Another 5th gen found, Sparkle Yellow Motegi...
I joked with @NafemanNathan that his car was drawing all the youngsters, the cool crowd as it where, (though Nathan did confess that a few people had bugger all idea what car it was!), meanwhile I was drawing all the pensioners with the OEM look, hehe.
The next shot I blame @nitin_s1 for, ever since I saw his Phoenix Yellow complete with oversized Minion I've been on the look out for a proper 'mascot'...
And the Mario Kart theme doesn't stop there...
Enough Nintendo, and the A8...
Back to a Nintendo theme with a toy car lifted straight out of Mario Kart
Really good to see @NafemanNathan mods in the flesh, just brilliant work
By comparison...
@Scott560
The Sparkle Yellow, (in mint condition), came by and joined us...
I do like the Sparkle Yellow, marmite colour or universally liked?
Was a huge show with around 1300 cars turning up.
Really enjoyed the day, and big thanks to @Sailor for sussing out such a great spot. Next year and we request Block C or Zone C, something like that.

Nice pictures.
I've just been looking through some older snaps.
In the years I've attended the event, we seem to have been pretty consistent, in that we've managed 10 or 12 cars every year, rain or shine.
If I've got it right, Prelude presence ranges from 3 to 6, Accords from 2 to 7. Other cars include Civics, an NSX, an Integra and 2 delightful little buzz boxes.
Shall we go for a record in 2020? We could try to book the same spot but fill up both sides of the road?
Let's hope it's not like this:-

Great pics Rich
It was funny the amount of people I saw walking around the back of my car looking for a badge (Which doesn't exist). They'd just shrug their shoulders and move on
