Just found this image. We are here in Geneva and on our way to the PalExp convention center for a pre-show inspection. Will confirm if we see the GT on the Ford stand.

I've been told there's no access to the interior of the car this year. If it's up in the air I can understand why!

Lots to see in Geneva as usual, and great to catch up with people! Some pictures :-

They still haven't fixed the big water leak down at the lake.

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. Highly recommended!

It does attract a certain sort of customer however, and they come and go at all hours of the night....

I think Hotel d'Angleterre around the corner on the lake is better in some ways.

I wasn't competing sir. Just making mention in case anyone was on the look out for a nice place that's well situated just off the Lake. I first stayed there in '92 when going to the Auto Show (great time) for the first time.

It's earned 5 stars and their restaurant rates in Michelin. Luv their Frette Sheets too!

BTW - it's good enough for your Royal Family as I ran into Prince Charles there once, and another one I didn't recognize (though the staff filled me in) a couple years ago.

................but I'm sure your Hotel d'Angleterre is vey nice too.

And I'm sorry if you thought I was. Always good to have recommendations! Both are excellent options.

Great to chat and hope to see you over here! You can update us on any developments you may have :wink

For people that haven't been to Geneva, one of the odder features is the large companies getting their staff to do a dance a couple of times a day. Here's Ford!

Something to do at Rally 13? :lol

Very nice. It looks a bit photoshopped in the 2nd photo and appears quite low compared to the other cars but I guess it is the other way round, the other cars are quite high compared :wink

Congrats to the owner
