In and out in about an hour and a half, usual stuff, some very very nice motors, some we've seen before and a few badly prepped ones.
Highlight for me was the red 944, and a couple of the mkiv Golfs for inspiration.
I'll probably be back tomorrow for another nosey.

I dunno how people did it in an hour and a half? Maybe expecting too much me thinks?

I was there a good 3hrs or more and I didn't see the half of it! Admittedly I had my twin daughters in tow, but even they were enjoying it and didn't mind me spending an age looking at the cars!

You do realise that if this show was in England it would be around £35+ entry fee ?

This country has the cars and content to actually churn out a proper car show without question but the biggest problem here will always be people not wanting to pay for it.

Not having a go at you Nicky just annoys me generally tbh


Some nice stuff came over from the U.K. That you won't see everyday.

Going to head tomorrow for a look

I'm actually considering going again tomorrow for two reasons, to see the cars on the outside I didn't get round and to make me feel like I'm getting my £15's worth! Lol

Have the Ascona and Manta down at it, just dropped them off this morning and had a quick lap around it, didnt see the half of it. A lot of it isnt really my cup of tea, but the quality of a lot of them more than makes up for it, and always good to look at something different.

If only the public knew just how much money is on the line to pull these events off :worried:

Autosport was less than that and I suspect a tad bigger.

Although I havent been to Dubshed, heard good reports about it last year though

That is something i had said to my dad when we were down earlier, there was a lot of £15 going through the gate, but i wouldnt like to be the one hoping that you will get enough of them to cover it. Id say the rent for Eikon would scare the life out of you!

Was at it there today, had to shoot off early as the fella who was driving us was being a ****.

Inside the quality was amazing and a lot of great cars and worth the money in my eyes. Outside some of the cars are very very questionable. Don't get me wrong a lot of lovely ones but in equal amount a lot of rough scrap.
