The Haynes is operated by the publishers of the Haynes repair manuals. It has an interesting arrangement. In some of the rooms, there are only red cars, others have only blue ones. A few itinerant military vehicles were parked out front at the time of my visit in 2004. Click HERE for pix. Click on each of the pix for a full screen view.

Here are the pix from YEOVILTON.

Here are the pix from GAYDON.

The main reason for the trip was to marshal at the LMES Silverstone meet. See pix HERE.

Also visited were Abington on Thames & Oxford HERE and Bristol HERE.

Have a good trip and don't forget to write (and post pix). .
