Went yesterday. Lots of nice cars, some of the stunts in the show were quite fun, but a bit dubious whether it was worth the entry.
TVR London are there with a convertible (which seemed to be having problems with the door shutting and seal come away - oh no!) plus a Sag. The Sag's in the show as well.
Anyone else go?

We popped up to London yesterday with mates and the boys did MPH whilst the girls went on the annual 'destroy our bank balances' spree at Harrods 
Ray had EVO enclosure tickets which is useful if there are too many bodies and the place starts to heave...but he said it was okay. Probably cos we went on a Friday this time instead of at the weekend.
They both enjoyed the show, had something a little different to the last two he's attended........
Always a crowd around the Sagaris whenever he was near the stand and had a good yak with John from Racing Green.
All met up back the The Tower Hotel right next door to Tower Bridge where they do a great carvery.
Good day out.

I went yesterday, and was glad I didn't stretch to the £45 EVO tickets, also wondered whether I should have bothered with the £30 "Premium" tickets - it was not at all busy which was good, but meant that nobody was sitting upstairs in the non-premium ticket seats anyway, they just sent everyone into the premium seats, and told people to sit where they like. Someone was sat in our supposedly reserved seats, so we just went and sat in better ones, but could have done so on the most basic tickets! They also seemed be handing the show guides out to everyone, another suppposed "benefit" of our tickets. I guess it may be busier today.
Overall it was good, show was ok, although motorshow in Birmingham a coupe of years ago had some better stunts and shows.
There didn't seem to be any proper "manufacturer" stands, it was just lots of posh dealers, who had brought a nice selection of cars, and you could easily get into and look around most of them, which was refreshing.
Choice of catering was ok, all in all a worthwhile trip, and some good deals on sat nav / speed trap kit if you're interested - the new AA one seems good value at £290 upstairs for PDA based nav and speed traps, and Road Angel for £450.
