No longer in association with PH? Had my leaflet in the post for next year's show and no mention of PH.

Hi guys,

Sorry I've only just seen this...

I'm the chap responsible for The Performance Car Show here at PH Towers and I can assure you it is very much in association with PH.

To give the show it's full title is The Performance Car Show: powered by PistonHeads.com. PH will have it's own stand in the same location as last year. The stand will be staffed by the PH Team so you will have the pleasure (or misfortune) to meet Monsieur's Garlick, Trent and Robbins (Riggers Mk2) and maybe even PH Techie Switch during your visit.

If you have any questions please direct them this way and I'll be more than happy to help.

Many thanks,

James
The Performance Car Show: powered by PistonHeads chap.

How about a couple of PH staff cars on the stand? e.g Garlick's Chim .

PH are doing something different this year. And I doubt Garlick's Chim will make an appearance for two reasons.

1. Salt on the roads in January
2. Health & Safety. - Considering the Chim rattles my desk four floors up from his parking space I would imagine the resonant sound will cause all the stands around it to fall down when he brings it in.

Still going to have the Comfy seats I hope. They were a godsend after being on your feet for hours.

I believe so and I'm sure Garlick will confirm / deny in due course. And yea tell me about it. I was on site for five days. It's known as 'Show Feet'.

Edit: Garlick tells me there will be seating of some description.

Yea no problem. Here is a list of cars you can expect to see in The Performance Car Show: powered by PistonHeads.com

Supercar Paddock - Sponsored by Alpha Drive Walsall
Lamborghini Aventador
Ferrari 458 Spyder
Mercedes SLS AMG
Audi R8 V10 Spyder

Autocar

Ferrari F12 (First public showing)
Morgan Three Wheeler
Subaru BRZ
Mastretta MXT (First UK Showing)

Noble are bringing their M600, Ariel will be brining a range of Atoms, and we have content from Noble Owners Club, Lotus On Track, Ford RS Owners Club, TVR Car Club and Lamborghini Club UK.

We also have something new for 2013 with an Interactive Content area in Hall 9 on the weekend. In here you will find clubs such as Marcos Owners Club, Slowly Sideways who are displaying a selection of Group B & WRC Rally Cars, MX5 Nutz and VX220.org who will be showing a Time Attack winning Vauxhall VX220 race car.

Naturally there will be many other cars on display throughout the whole show but that's the featured list from the PH Show.

Hope that helps!

James

Thank you James. It doesn't help me, so soon after Christmas, but it has certainly helped my son to decide we are going!
