Any local Phers going to this ?

I first went to Wheels day in 1980 when it was held at a cattle market site on Slyfield

well before it got re-developed into what it is now.

Yes. I plan on attending. It's within walking distance of my gaff so I don't have to worry about the traffic queues.

Wheels day is fantastic , run by the Surrey street rodders it focuses strongly on Americana and the rodding scene in general but anything of interest seems welcome , it's a season opener and is often hit by bad weather but it never seems to detract from the field of cars that turn out that have been hiding away in garages all winter. Last year we had unbroken sunshine and it even seemed a little wrong not to be running from showers all day confused , great show for the autojumble as well.

And cars !

Apparently public entry is from 10am - you think it'll be mega queues? Maybe worth waiting til 11ish, as opposed to an early start and queueing?

Arrive early if weather is nice or queue for a VERY long time.

Aldershot has been grid locked in past years.

Despite having attended many times,don't know what parking is like as always

park inside show in mates fancy van.

Spotted a few PH stickers! Good event but a bit too much Americana for my taste.
