great show very very busy, although dunno whos idea it was to get rid of the marshalls that help you park, what a nightmare and huge headache to get out of the car park.

not as many cars this year and they changed the catering company who that had for years and the new one is much more expensive

nice variety of stalls though, and a bigger funfair this year.

be good to hear some of your reviews, good and bad points.

[kwk]

I've got to agree about the marshalls. I do feel though that this is less of a car show with attractions and more of attractions with a few cars and auto related stalls every year. I go for the auto related part but it does seem like a good family day. Perhaps I'll give it a miss next year. I will try Pencoed next week.

Was a great day out nice to see the sun out the only thing i would say was there seemed to be more modern cars there again this year,i'm ok with future classics but some of the cars there just my opinion

Was it a real gullwing? Didn't know there was one around these parts, they must cost half a mill these days!

[The Nur]

IF it was a replica it was a very impressive one. Apparently there is one stored in a garage over tycoch way. Whether this is true or not I could'nt tell you.

[dannytherev]

Yeah fairly sure it was a real one indeed worth silly money these days

[SCOTTE999]

thanks for the link danny

[happygoron]

Oakfields want €595000 for theirs. (http://www.oakfields.com/showroom01.asp?offset=20)

It was a real Gullwing, i've seen about 30-40 of them and it looked real enough to me

It could be the same one that was at the Tredegar House show last year, which if it is, its real! Davey should be along to confirm at some point.
