Yep, if we knew then what we know now we'd have been buying as many old Fords for peanuts as we could and sitting on them, be f*cking minted by now. As long you had somewhere dry to store them, otherwise they'd just be piles of rust by now, but it was only 10 years ago they being flogged for...

It was only a 1.3 but even so, the retro scene kids pay silly money for them now. It pretty much looked like this, just tattier.

Still can't believe I sold my 2 door Escort estate for £85 quid, f*cking thing would probably fetch £2k now.

Just got round to watching this months episode, I knew the Rotsun was a piece of sh*t but I assumed that was just the chassis, turns out the engine, gearbox and electrics are total junk too, best/worst car ever.

I need your clothes, your boots and the crack pipe you've been smoking.

Sounds like it was a good weekend, you're right about making an effort about socialising, no matter what club you're a part of there are those that find it easy and those that don't, passenger ride stickers is a good idea though, we'll have to nick that for next years CSS.

Who was driving the F1 car?

They wish.

So what was it like then, what was the format of the weekend, just a trackday and people camping with their mates and not socialising?

That engine bay is a work of art.

Because you didn't have the heart to tell him a 197 is slower than a 172?

But what does Peng actually stand for, P-engage?

Someone had a go at that.

God damn CS getting me into to these stupid ugly slab sided tanks.

It looks like someone cut the end off a rear spring and thought 'f*ck it that'll work'.

I think it's just a spare tyre rather than a spare wheel, I like how the radiator's sandwiched between the engine and the firewall, I bet they measured the range of that thing in yards rather than miles.

It's a much darker orange in daylight than it is in the garage, or is that just white balance issues from using a camera phone?

That Renault windscreen's enormous, everyone must have worn top hats back then.

Imagine driving around in something worth over a mill, every time you got a stone chip or a bird shat on it you could count the cost of depreciation in thousands, that's if they don't just keep appreciating into the future forever.

Forgot to mention that Blyton had a decent Cafe with nice food at a reasonable price, which meant I didn't have to cook a bloody thing all weekend, which I was really happy about as I was either drunk or hungover and would probably have poisoned myself.

I think the thing with CSS is no one knows what it's meant to be as it's still a work in progress, we've learnt from experience that a traditional car show with rows of identical shiny Clio's is boring as sin, Gaydon was good because there was a car museum to look at, Duxford was good because...

Blackjack and hookers, in fact, forget the black jack.

Yeah Ron told me the same on the day, my Mum works in event management and has contacts that can provide all the stuff we were let down on, I just hope it's not the same company that bailed on us. lol

How come the replacement shaft fell out too then? Is your avatar the Duke of Hazzard moment from CSS?

I look the best, therefore I win.

Well if said Scottish people didn't ride the curbs so hard they ended up on two wheels like the Dukes of Hazzard, they wouldn't have bent their subframe causing the driveshafts to pop out, it was brilliant to watch though.

The segways were sh*t, you had to get dressed up like a f*cking storm trooper in full pads and helmets to do 3mph on grass ffs.

Without him my hangover would have definitely been fatal.

Yeah after the band finished was when we got down to the proper drinking, thank god for Bratwurst.
