Post by: Bob Purton on May 03, 2015, 05:10:16 PM: So which rallies are we planning to attend this year with our microcars?
I'm planning on Bath, the Isetta 60th anniversary and the National.

Is that a car show up north? ;D

The reason its all gone quite is that everyone's petrified they will say something that upsets someone. ::)

Those small local shows can be really good ones to take microcars to Steve. They give the locals a chance to see something they wouldnt otherwise see. Saying that, there would be no surprises for the folks of Hornchurch as my car is a well known site on local roads. " There goes that nutter again in his bubblecar" " Oh look, he's stuck a BMW badge on his bubblecar, should be a law against it!" " dont park too close to that bollard mate, you dont have a reverse gear!" " me and my mates got 16 people in one of those once" Just a few of the things I've heard whilst topping up with petrol at my local BP garage.

Sounds like you are getting quite involved now Dodger. Look forward to seeing your work. Never been the the Darling buds event, may give that a try too.
