Ouch! Still, he did a GREAT job on my car. I was thrilled to bits with the transformation
Just a short message to say Thankyou to all involved in making Sandringham such an enjoyable day.
It was well worth the 5am wake up and 200 mile round trip.
Thanks again,
Michael
Thank you everybody who made the Sandringham Rally such an outstanding event.
That Rolls Royce Merlin engine just awesome & the soundâŚ
It was my first time in this area of Norfolk, impressed, I think we will take holiday there in 2014.
HS2 maybe, but surely the A17 needs upgrading first, some dual carriageway or maybe even some bends to
make it a bit more interesting. Guess Iâm spoilt based on the Lancashire/Yorkshire/Cumbria border.
Thank you very much indeed

Unfortunately we were unable to sort that one in time. Robbie can fix a Merlin engine, but the A17 is just too big a job
Robbie and othersâŚ
Has anybody yet got the final figure of the number of MX5âs attending the Sandringham rally?
Whatever the figure add a half, need to include Brian & Aprilâs The Original CarBBQ
Keith
well, OK then its 1113.5
Thatâs cars clicked in, a car count around the event area, stands and comps cars but does not include any that managed to sneak in through the top gate which was supposed to be secured.>!Â

It was my 1st visit to Norfolk and we will certanly be coming back. Thank you Robbie, Martin and all the Eastern Region Team for a fantastic event. It was worth the 700 mile round trip. Johns highlight was the Merlin engine, mine was catching up with friends and seeing so many smiles and gleaming cars. I loved the one in the Pheonix 5s area with flower effect bodywork. A great event.
Like G995, made the 200 mile round trip well worth it, (Will be keeping an eye out for u mate, clacton aint that big lol). Merlin sounded awsome as always. Was mine and the g/fâs first time to a rally of that size and to see the field just full of MX-5âs was something to behold.
One question did arise during the day thoughâŚâWot, no hog roast?â lol
Serioulsy well done to all, will try to make it next year to Gaydon.
Iâd like to add my congratulations to the ER Team for putting on a great event. I know what hard work and effort is required and you guys did the business. Well done

Yes, thanks to all of the hard working volunteers that made the whole day such an enjoyable time.
Coming from donkeys years of club motorsport experience I know how hard it is to get people to help out with these events.
Congratulations one and all.Â
Roll on Brooklands and Gaydon.

p.s. While we were up that way we took in a long weekendâs holiday. Southwold on the Friday and Saturday (Adnams, yummy) and after the show across to Wroxham for Sunday evening (Woodefords, yummy) and Monday morning before the drive back to Croydon in the afternoon. Â 645 kmâs (Jap import !) and she never missed a beat. The car was pretty good tooÂ
p.p.s Nice to meet up with you Nick (of Nick & Janeâs âBuccaneersâ fame). Following our chat and your thoughts it looks like I will have to look for a late model Mk II now - wife power eh ? Â She wants a white one mind you ! Â
A phenomenal turnout; I think my first club rally, around about 2002, at Gaydon, was about 400 cars or so. We could still park by colour then. Just shows how far the club has come. In fact, even at the 2007 Rally, back at Gaydon, we could be accomodated. I doubt it now.
Andy,
20th Anniversary Rally - September 28th 2014 âŚ
Gaydon Motor Heritage Museum.
There has been a considerable amount of work at Gaydon in the past couple of years and if you are in the area - you can see an incredible amount of development underway and by the time we get there next year the open space around the site is goign to be transformed.
Massive thanks to Robbie and the team for a great event at Sandringham, it was mine and Gavâs first National Rally and we will certainly be doing it again.

Must say Sandringham was one of the best rallys that Iâve been to. The one that does stick in my mind is Chatsworth but I think thatâs probably just due to the wonderful view of all the cars from the access road on arrival. Donât think anything could have been done better at Sandringham though. Superb job all round. The central arena with everything set out around it was just perfect. Made it feel like our own MX-5 world. No walking backwards and forwards along a row of stands, You could just do a lap to stretch your legs and finish up back where you started. Hope it was as much of a success for the trade stands as it was for everyone else. Well done guys, loved it.
