Nena on show at Detling 2008

Well we made it ! After all the hard work we had a great run up to Detling including a nice pitstop at Clacket Lane where we got chatting to an Ultima driver on his way to the show too.

We made quite a site at the petrol station.

I have been testing Nena over the last week or so and the engine was a bit lumpy but Nena definitely ran better on the way home, a good run always helps blow away the cobwebs !
Highlight of the day – arriving to see everyone at Club Nova on an excellently positioned stand waiting for us (we didn’t brave the camping Friday night!), and a Nena shaped hole in the middle of the display – cheers !
Great to see a line up of 5 Novas, and good to catch up with everyone that was on the stand or came to say hello.


Some snagging items to sort – the hailstorm and rains found some areas where the canopy and sunroof don’t fully seal yet !
Overall though a great day, which we ended by crusing along the Southcoast from Brighton to Worthing.
Here are some pictures from the show,






























Bet you were wondering if she would ever make it to a show !

The colour, in case you were wondering, is Volkswagen Vapor blue.

Well done to everyone from Club Nova who made the show, and a great display - sorry we didn't make the camping but it seemed a little ambitious for Nena's first trip out ! Stoneleigh will be a 2 day event - I promise !

All the best,

Jim
