We had a good run down and arrived for a 9.30 start. I thought it was a bit smaller than before with a few missing regulars (paintman for example) which was a shame given I need some for my series one.

However star find, a pair of rear second row door tops for my brothers 1983 110. Given they were only in production for 2 years and these were rock solid quite a find. 2010 XS USW

I was at the very first one. Did about half a dozen over the following years down there. Visited Newbury once I think.
I remember the Old Sod... used to wander about collecting the sellers pitch fees, or if he saw somehing you were selling (that he wanted) for a similar price a "deal" (Swap) would be done. good times.
