We arrived at 8.30 & as you got bored & miffed with the crowds & not being able to see anything up close so left at 1ish.
not buying another camera, it takes pictures. end.
got the spacers on, camber needs more adjusting on the rh side but its now driveable! I raised the front by half an inch, came home & she wouldnt get up my drive without takeing the front bumper off! :(

cheers Jon
