I have come up with 1986 as they have got Esso door squares and would appear to be pre turbo, ie, no body kit.
Oooh!
I've always believed these pictures to be of Chris Tyrell's car as I remember seeing the accident at the Woodcote Chicane and I thought (the old grey cells are diminishing) I'd photographed the aftermath.
I don't think I'd have photographed Metro's in 1986, but then who knows? Does the picture of Nigel (Boot) Gaymers car give any clues of the year. That was from the same roll of film, so I assume from (if not) the same meeting (then it was the same year).
(I'll have to look at the slides when I get a chance to see if there's a date stamp on them).
