.

Good to meet you too Ken - 'twas a bloody good day

E22 KBD is Mike Dewar's (MikeS2) quattro and it is the first MB; Mike was at ADI and we had a good chat - his 90 20v Sport quattro has an ABS fault, so the MB was pushed into action - it's at least an 800-mile round trip from Mike's place

I was surprised to see Dave Preece there. Even more surprised that he shook my hand. We did used to have a good laugh though, back in the nineties.

I didn't realise E22 KBD was Mike's car. I thought his was E34 KBD. I think dementia is setting in,

Am I sad that i got a bit of a semi on over Mike's original VAG UK plates?

Was there in E22 on Saturday. It's about 420 miles each way.

Came over to speak to you in the afternoon Ken, but your car was away by that time.

Yeh, the qOC was great back then. Some great characters and great cars that have since slipped off radar. It really was great to have a chat with Dave. He is still as funny as ever.
There were a few Ur quattros at ADI that I have never seen before, which is always nice. The Lago MB on the Classic Audi stand was nice. Ex Press car and late registered, it gave me a semi on. I have an unhealthy affection towards the Press cars.

Sorry about that, Mike. Always a pleasure to chat to you. Respect for travelling all that way. I thought I had a long drive!

Well, qOC bit, but that was sort of with the Classic Audi bit. It looked nice and standard. Similar plate to the Nautic Blue 20V Clarkson drives on the Top Gear clip back in 1990.
