Benz On The Green 2023 on the 13th of May

[Dippo]

Unfortunately, I'm not going to make it.
Only just got home from having the tyres done, and have just been sick!

(Only joking!)

I had to leave bit early unfortunately but was very enjoyable. Extremely relaxing place the George Inn. Living in concrete jungle the scenery is amazing to my eye

'Twas great to meet up with some of you again at BOTG. The ride down was a bit of a nightmare because as I left home the sat-nav on the bike announced, "A34 closed; Re-routing" and it took the only other viable route which was M40 / M25 / A3, and both the M40 and M25 were a shambles.

No matter, the sun started to shine once past Hindhead and it turned into gorgeous weather at The George. How do you do it, Olly? Friends in high places?

Thanks for a great day out

Like st13phil I also had to leave, just after the raffle and got back about 15 minutes ago (17.50hr)

Thanks to all for make it an enjoyable day for me, in my Swedish Panzer, especially MissyD and the others (whose names, as promised, I've forgotten . . . . . Bloody rubbish memory . . . . .oh, oh, Kirsty, yes, Kirsty and her partner were two.

I agree regarding the cars, a beautiful sight, but for me, the SLs were by far the best part for me.
I'm missing the 3 pointed star and am already looking at the GL and M series cars . . . . Mostly too expensive for me, not just the purchase price, but the road tax and insurance, however, I'll not give up.

Keep up the good work and I hope that MBUK raised loads for Cancer Research

No worries John it was a pleasure to meet you today. Hope you can get a Merc again soon!

Great to meet up with old friends and meet a few new members. I don't know how Ollie manages to pick another sunny day for this annual GTG. A few pics, some lovely cars, especially that 190Evo.

 

[Will]

Great video and pics guys

Agree the Evo-II is my pick of the bunch there - pity I didn’t get to see that one. Anyone know what number it was or the mileage (kilometres), would love to see some more pics

So pleased the weather was good, it’s such s nice day out - looking forward to next year

 

[AMGeed]

Quite a few people lusting after that Evo Will.
I expect plenty more pics will follow.
It seemed to draw far more interest than the Fezza.

Lovely to meet everyone in person. Just arrived back home and very sun burnt on my neck. Must have been all the yapping away I did, sorry if I trapped anyone in tech talk.

Lovely day out and a good reason to drive the cars!

Great event today all. Some fantastic cars to be seen. Loved the slammed E ( James ?! )
Good to get the EVO out and thrilled to win best in show. Thanks to all who organised. PCS. Etc.

Great day out again, myself and my parents thoroughly enjoyed it

Thanks to all those involved with the organisation, and great food and drink from the new pub owners too.

Was quite pleased we had raffle ticket 157 seeing I have an M157 but not quite lucky enough by 3 numbers

Fab cars as always and great speaking to all those I did. Thought it was quite ironic my Dad and Alex were deep in electric car tech talk stood next to his monster of an S65

 

[Jobsworth]

Did my usual unfortunately and was at Ollie’s shop at 8.45 but had to go back to work for midday. Nice to see some of the usual suspects there though. Looking forward to beaulieu in the summer for a longer escape

 

[Rashman]

Another great day at PCS.
Many thanks as usual to Pauline & Ollie.
Always a pleasure to see you both and join the event.

Big apologies to all of you for not having as much time to spend talking as I would have liked.
It seems having kids running around makes this a challenge .
Nonetheless, it was great to see you all.
Some really good pictures taken too, well done.
Variety of cars was awesome as usual.
The 190, Ferrari, the 720s, and (my personal favourite) the Green Hell GTR we’re lovely to have there.

Hope to see you all soon.

Haha sorry about that! I do like the idea of an i3 after my zoe experience, just getting your dad to convince me

 

[ChrisEdu]

Phwoar!!! And no, MissyD, I'm not talking about you!
Some gorgeous cars there, although who let those red things in!?
Doubly annoyed today, as not only did I miss out on BOTG, but also found a scratch/rub on my front bumper.
Still, new tyres are done and my new, black, vcentre caps have also been fitted.
Maybe next year (it'll rain if I come!)

Looks like an excellent example you have got there

Hopefully get to see it sometime in the future
