The venturi not on show?

[GT 1]

Sadly not, no but as there are always some hidden gems in the car park, I'm pretty sure we'll be in good company

[ceebmoj]

Yes, I always make a point of walking around the car park. Last year there were some fantastic cars that should deffinately have been on display instead of some others, but i guess it's impossible to fit everything in.

Will the Marcos be making an appearance? I love Marcos's, probably my favourite british manufacturer, they are crazy cool. A Mantis/LM500 is deffinately on my "Have to own at some point list"

The macros owners club usually have a good turn out I have been on the stand a couple of times for the event something between 5 and 12 cars are usably present. Last year I believe that there was one of every model on the stand with the exception being the TSO, Mini macros and the green le mans car that recently featured on PH who's name escapes me.

I'm not sure if I will be in the Marcos or Lotus on the day as I will be there with a couple of mates who want a look round and not to be board by me and other Marcos guys talking about the myusi of pedal box adjusters.

fair doos...
Anyone else got their cars on display, Only a week and a bit to give em a polish...

[plasticpig]

Some of the TVR owners are on PH. I spoke to a couple last year.

[J_S_G]

May well pop along on the Sunday as it's only just down the road!

[slomax]

I'm only coming home tomorrow evening which just gives friday to give the old girl a once over. Can't remember the last time she got a bit of TLC, I think it was easter time.

[myquest]

Now I've moved from a classic TVR to a modern Jag XK I will hide it in the car park and come and enjoy the display you classic guys put on, on Saturday.

Went last year and was a great day, probably the hottest of the year too. Unable to come this year... on my hols. Thoroughly recommend anyone who hasnt been before to go though.

[Pistonho]

The weather was perfect. Had a great day at the show.

Plenty of cars to see and also picked up a few items from the autojumbles.

As I am in the process of building a Tamiya Sand Scorcher the highlight for me was the Baja Bug.

[Atomic Gibbon]

Went today, to be honest I was a bit dissapointed - lots of nice cars, but no Ferrari, Lambo, Aston exotica. Some brilliant cars in the car parks though, quite a few modern Astons etc. The best bit for me was finding a pub beer garden down the road, and watching all the visitors hooning away from about 5 pm ish. Some lovely V8's running about!

4 genuine Ferraris 308GTB, 355, TESTAROSSA 308GT4, and a couple of Aston Martins DB5 and a new DB9, i had a great day in my TVR Griffith..........

P.S. the Ferraris were real ones not those badly built mr2 copies

[BriC175]

The guy with the (genuine) yellow 355 let me sit in it, and switched the engine on for me!

I wanted the Supercharged M3 CSL and the E39 M5 in the BMW stand too!
