Hi Steve , in the Kent area you are in good company although I’m not sure about local group activity . I used to live in Essex and occasionally came down through the pipe to the local Kent all Triumph group but I think that has now gone. You do have Chris Tickner who has a lovely Mk 3 Spitfire and a Herald nearby and the East Sussex guys are very good . Welcome to the Club!

Setting up the stand at the Resto show .

My Thanks to Ashley for finding this new venue for the Annual Dinner . The Kettering Park Hotel (Part of the Daniel Thwaites Group) was a revelation. The welcome was warm , the food was superb , the rooms were, well appointed and quiet . The organisation was smooth and seamless . The Spa and pool area were a welcome addition . Hotel breaks have gotten more expensive in recent times in the UK but this one was worth every penny in my view . I hope that we use this facility again in the future . I was approached by members old and new who were of the same opinion . The RBRR cheque handed over on the night to the Huntington’s Charity was for just over £80000 and the Club that does has done it again! The representatives from the charity were over the moon with the amount raised and were thanked by Tim Bancroft for their support on the event . Tim also thanked the Marshals and the organisers. All in all it was a great event and thank you to everyone that attended. I hope to see you all again in the future.

Safe Journey to everyone travelling to the Club Dinner in Kettering today . See you all later .

Love the Raiders .. can’t wait !

Hi Mark , if Dave can get anyone to take them to the Club Dinner I can pop them in my car as I’m often down near Pete and could drop them with him .

Looking closely at some of the pics I note that the car has been uprated to some later period bits and pieces like the later dashboard and the S spec wheels and black PI/ S no plate surround . These parts were not fitted to pre facelift TC cars . The seats are also not standard and look like leather . It’s very nicely done . This does not detract from its value . I hope it stays in the Club, regards Darren

That looks a lovely car … if only …but price wise you should be looking at around £6500 plus in the real world .

Looks nice and straight from the Picture Gary , have you been up close ? Overdrive is very desirable on all Triumphs but not essential as it can be added later.

I’m in !
