Re: [doc] Markeaton Park Motor Show

["Phill Wright" <psw@xxxxxxxx>]

:-) hey, he told me it was made of 'Ali' as well! mind you, I soon 
put him right and now he knows that they are of course made of zinc 
plated tin ! ... drat, I can't quite remember his name either, 
definately something along the lines of Rich's thoughts though, he 
did say he was local though :-)

I'll post some pics of the show shortly on a web-album link as 
usual ..

Phill W
DOC 233
VIN 6772(sorbet) 
Avantime (M4TRA)
SERA (just found out it's the rarest production colour made - only 
0.7% of the 15000 made were in this colour .. yay, I suppose I'll 
have to live with the metallic turquoise after all)
