Beetle Drive 2011

Not many pics online yet here's a few on The Late Bay http://thelatebay.com/index.php?topic=3146.0

And the only emergency action in this is this one of the 3pm driveabout!

There's a nice little vid here! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1I5syKv ... detailpage 1:41 is a good spot :lol: Funny thing is, it's almost at exactly the same spot as the piccy! I convoyed to and from this event with some local dubbers see 2:10 the red splittie and the blue and red bugs. Made for a nice day!

And if that's not enough sirens, they have an emergency vehicles day...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYK4cxTT71U may have to give that a go at some point! :D Maybe we could get a few of us there and (get in for free) and put on a gruppe display!

(:D

It is Pete and we said the same. Used to see them at shows in the 80s and 90s but hardly any at all now. :cry:

Even in the 80s it must have been hard business. %(

We had a chap named Todt in our village who built trikes, but after a certain time he gave up and the former Ford garage became a car repair shop again. :(
