Members' Cars at the PH Show

Hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of PH cars on show at the NEC this weekend

---

All manner of metal will be on show

Ever fancied seeing what other PistonHeaders drive? This weekend the PH Show takes place at the NEC and alongside a wealth of attractions there will be hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of members’ cars.

The PistonHeads Show is part of the Autosport International Show, which takes place from 8-11 January 2009 at the Birmingham NEC. The PistonHeads Members’ Car Display will feature a mix of Ferraris and Porsches alongside more down-to-earth iconic performance cars.  

As always a healthy contingent of TVRs will be a highlight of the PistonHeads Car Display, with twelve scheduled to make the trip to Birmingham. This includes a production prototype of the Sagaris, and one of the first Griffiths. If you enjoy looking out for real continental rarities, then you’ll relish the Venturi 300 Atlantique and De Tomaso Guara.

‘Once more we’ve been fortunate to have some fantastic support from our members, proving the point that individuals can contribute as much to the show as exhibitors with some amazing machinery,’ said PistonHeads Show Director Dave Ryan.

Tickets to the show are now on sale. To book, visit www.pistonheadsshow.com or call 0044 (0) 844 579 31870044 (0) 844 579 3187.

Are the owners going to put there P/H user names on the car somewhere?

Database problems with the site!



The MySQL error was: Too many connections.

Link not working for me either.

Owners of the display cars have been asked to provide a resume/spec sheet.
This is probably where they will put their PH user name

We were asked last year but the spec sheets didn't happen.

Sorry but IMHO that Venturi isn't a very attractive car. Each to their own.

Is this the same format as last year, where all of PHdom was invited to display their carS?

Mine was on display last Jan, but perhaps I missed the invite this year?

They seem to have server problems for the past few days. Not good timing I know but hey servers are servers.

Seems like a bandwidth issue really.

That isn't a 300 for sale though.... agreed they are delightful, a guy in Wrexham has a yellow one for sale (performancelegends.co.uk)
But the car on ebay looks fantastic to my eyes, I like a car to look aggressive, and that certainly does!
