With over 30 focus’ on display from mk 1 to mk 2 and cc’s, this was possibly the largest club showing.  Our thanks go to Events co-ordinators Drunkennosh (Duncan) and Parksie (Kieron) for all their hard work in arranging it all from tickets and stand passes to layout - organised from mk1 to mk 2.

It is always a good show to meet other club members and view their cars in the metal, and today was no exception.  Even the rain that had swept the country over the past week kept away for the day!  Here’s hoping that next year’s Ford Fair will be even bigger and better.  Hope to see you there.

Lots of members will have taken their own pictures which should be found in the Meets & Shows Pictures section of the forum.  Below is a selection from Joescamera.
