    I remember that car well too. Beautiful, even now it still looks different from the crowd, that was a proper sleeper
    Love those revo's, thats how I was going to have mine, but the rear arches were done really badly so I bubbled it

    Was brought up in Crystal Palace you could hear when the cars had arrived from my bedroom window .

    Shame it was pre digital camera age as I suppose no photos of the cars/people/events exist (unless of course the cars/people still exist).

    Anyone fancy a re-union? The parade I think is a red route now but there's other places we could go

    Yeah I know but cameras are so small, versatile and cheap these days (i.e. you dont have to get the bloody films developed) I think people tend to carry them to meets, mobile phones even have them.

    Interested to see if anyone can scan some of their crusty old film type photos and post them up, they would be good to see!popcorn:

    Still love that car!
    when I think back to the late 80's / early 90's that car and the white oneyou had before it spring to mind together with the "have you driven a ford lately" capri, the escorts of the "3 amigos" and the "fast car" sponsered mk2.
