Hey Pete,

It was great to see everyone again and some new faces!

BIG thanks for organizing! We had a great time!

I will post some pictures later, but I brought my pocket party camera - hence the quality is quite poor

Did you drive the black W210 E55 with the Eisenmann rear box?

I remember watching as you pull up and I overheard some people go 'what? a Benz?' - the 55 then 'silenced' them with that awesome bark!

It was worth it, I got an awesome shot. And I was putting most of my weight onto the sunroof frame, pretty sturdy.

Yep, that was me. Thinking about putting the stock rear AMG pipe back on. The Eisenmann is a little much for everyday driving.
