Leamington 100 - 2009

Saturday consistently almost entirely of a marathon 6 hour detailing session, ensuring the 25 was ready for it's first show appearance at the Leamington 100.

The show was set up to raise money for North Warwickshire and Northampton Air Ambulance. if you can spare any pennies please send them their way.

Slap bang in the middle of Leamington Spa are the Royal Pump Room Gardens which, for the first time, would be the setting for the '100.

After a rather early wake up, I headed out toward a retail park just outside Leamington city centre. A procession would work it's way through the city to the Pump Rooms and open the show.

As I'd spent such a long time prepping the car I decided to enter into the Clean Machine competition. Rather unjustly I thought, I was pipped at the post by someone in a brand new Peugeot 207, cheating if you ask me...

The car looked great in the September sunshine though, the Solar Red paint was a real head turner.

On that note, here's some of my favourite shots of the car from the show.
