M-Keynes to Doncaster + Fleetdrive 2014 (Updated)

Wednesday was always gong to be a busy day - I had a latish night travelling to MK.  It was partly due to the 'pot holes' in the 'Electric Highway': Toddington was out and IKEA MK out!   Despite that it was up at 6 am and out early to wash the Mitsu and get it into show condition!  Everything had to be moved quickly as we were due 'on stand', 18 miles away, by 8.30.

FleetDrive 2104

FleetDrive is a fairly large event aimed at the bulk buying segment of the car market, which is the backbone the the car manufacturers' buiness  This year there were very larger representation by the usual suspect:  Nissan, Renault, Volvo, Vauxhall, Kia , JLR etc - its all on: on Fleetdrive 2014's website: http://www.thefleetshow.co.uk/

EV Matters and the Highland Charge car - the I-Rally-e were there just for a bit of relief - a bit of human interest.

2) project the H/Charge and charitable donation
3) test drive in the new Mitsubishi outlander
4) Crash testing the Outlander with anti collision technology
5) Test drive Renault Zoe - like it very much
6) Lapping Silverstone - flat out in a Tesla,
7) Silverstone to Doncaster - problematic, but not critical
8) news sponsor Blacktrack - Vehicle Data Recorder!  Promoted by Thatcham Vehicle Testing and recommended by Is companies! Our Mitsubishi now has one fitted!

I shoukd have good photos to add - but not sure when!  Maybe Fri evening!
