I have just received confirmation of the Business Day tickets, I am really looking forward to going this year.

It’s been a few years since I was last there and I can't wait to get some good piccies.

I remember business day been great as there was hardly anyone there, so you get to really see the cars without having to queue.

Is that Fleet day?

I'm hoping and praying for a Press ticket...

It's changed its name to Business day from Trade/fleet I think. It's on the 23rd I will be there.

Definately going... just not sure which day yet.

Might try and get a mate of mine to try and blag some "trade" tickets, as I like the thought of no queues.

Would be nice to meet up with a few PH'ers tho.

Not sure what day we are going. Depends on what tickets the factory send.

What are the best blaggs on the day, does making an effort, looking smart help get you on the stands/in the cars quicker? Usually get a 'backstage' pass from TVR but what about the other dealers?

Doesn't work anymore.. customers are generally invited to go to the stands well before the show starts.

(edit - this is based on a colleague of mine who works for Jag marketing dept)

As I understand it there are no trade days? I get preferential tickets through a manufacturer but this year they are just for general admission so I will have to mix it with the plebs this year Rich...

So what exactly is the best way to get these TVR stand tickets then ????? I don't mind paying my way to get in but if there's something new and nice that I seriously feel the urge to put a deposit on I get the raving hump at having to queue and often end up walking off muttering.

Queues are for Communists getting bread.

For the last NEC show local dealers had postcard size invitations which they gave away to all and sundry in the dealership, these got you 'backstage' into the piano bar
