Hi Chris,
This was not a UKC scheduled event and it was not included this year mainly sue to negative feedback last year partly due to cost of getting in (£10 + £5) additionally I noted that we did not recieve an invitation this this year either as we have over the last 3 years. I only went to drop of some gear to a pal and in fact only decided to go the day before and wasnt expecting to see any other XF's there, but it was nice to see Chris Wilson after such a long time. The XF roadster there was unknown to me and its driver did not speak to us! Sorry not to alert you that I was going but was only ther for 2 hours so did not think it worthwhile., All the best, Steve

Yeah, fantastic Chris 2,600 miles on some absolutly awesome roads, the amount of attention the Crossfire got was unbelievable, especially in Italy, they were all over it!! and in Monte Carlo, Lambos, Porkas, Rollers, every supercar you can name, no one batted an eye at but the Xfr got a lot of attention

I couldn't get it cleaned in Italy, the car washes there are manned, they jet wash first then put it through the brushes and dry it off. they refused to do mine all I got was "no supercar clean" from the guys, ended up getting a bucket from the hotel cleaner and doing it myself
