They need a new marketing department. I own a sports boat, a decent car, live nearby and yet ive never heard of it !!

Picked up a leaflet about it 3/4 months ago. Heard nothing about since then - not even a mention on PH by the organisers.

Odd that they haven't posted on here.

I saw it in the paper that's the only way I found out about it. I've just seen that it was mentioned in this thread: http://www.pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&a... and no body knew about it then either! It's odd because on the face of it it looks like a good event with lots of exhibitors

Just driven part it, went straight on here to see if anyone knew about it, appears mostly not! Down here for another reason so no spare time been planned, if I'd known I would've.

Not so super. Went there today. Rained and stuck in traffic. From a standstill in traffic I could see most of what was there and nothing special. Some nice stuff no doubt. Nowhere to park so left and got stuck in traffic again for a good half hour. Very small event too. If you are local and bored worth a look but otherwise wouldn't go out your way.

I displayed my car yesterday. Was ok, did expect a lot more though. I only knew about it because the Aston Martin Owners Club emailed me about it. I forgot how bad the traffic is in that area. Won't be going back for a long time!

That's a shame, glad I didn't make it, it was my daughters 3rd birthday, so couldn't make it.

Guessing most PH'ers were going to Sherborne, so not much interest in this. Had to pass on both this weekend. Had the pleasure of watching Edd win his swimming Gala instead. It's good to be a dad sometimes.

I went today, nice to see an event for new cars for a change with dealers coming from as far as Birmingham to exhibit. Quite a small exhibition though but I think that's partly because they had to relocate to a different venue and there seemed to be more food stalls than cars!
A good idea and great location though which could have the potential to be really good if they do it again next year + there were loads of people there.

Neighbour went to it and the VIP ball attached to it, seemed quite complementary about the whole thing.

Apparently Sunseeker brought some demo's into Torquay as well?
