GTINI Castlewellan Car Show Saturday 24th June

[Jonny_W]

I was up for a few hours in my brothers car. Good turnout and good to catch-up with a few people.

Think I parked behind you today, in main car park by lake?

I thought that might have been you but wasn't sure, you literally pulled in as I was walking past with my mate and his wee lad!
Car looks smart dude

Lovely motors on display as usual. Haven't been down in best part of 10 years now.
Maybe tone down the hdr effects etc though.

On the RMS Blog: One of the most chilled events of the car show calendar in Northern Ireland is definitely the Castlewellan Car Show run by the VAG enthusiasts club GTINI. It's one of the longest running shows locally too, taking place at the same venue for well over a decade. With everything from Bugs to Campers, Audis to Vauxhalls there's always something for everyone at the Castlewellan event

I didn't realise that was you behind me on the way in - you should've gave the one finger salute and I might've noticed

The show was a good afternoon out, not as busy as some previous years but still great all the same.

After about an hour and 15 mins of driving slowly, and just as I pulled in to park up, a coolant hose sprung a leak A five minute fix to trim the hose but a brief panic beforehand all the same

@g4ost I wasn't to sure if it was you or not and I didn't know you'd of noticed us in a wee ford fiesta behind you lol

Yeah I'd seen you pull onto the road behind me a few miles back and then all the way into the Park, it was just too sunny to see people clearly enough to recognise who it was

Personally, bar the Escorts and a few RMS member cars, it doesn't actually look great this year.

Was down at this myself although it was the first year I've actually had a VW to attend in. Was really good although sort of paying for it now with sunburn

 

[AlpineF30]

Was at it myself for an hour, I showed up at 11 and left at 12 due to other plans so missed a few motors but seemed good quality as usual. Loved the R32 GTR. Passed the Silver Cossie when I was on my way through Downpatrick coming home. Lovely car

No bother. The VR6 Mk.III?

No bother. The VR6 Mk.III?

Yeah the green one. I think I was the only vr6 one. Nearly every other was a red GTI. Ironically mine started as a red gti lol

It's an absolutely cracking colour. Not Manila Green (Mark 1) shade, by any chance? Looks like it should be an air-cooled hue but there were some epic solid greens on the early Mk.1's.

 

[natogreen16v]

@Überdub cheers. That's exactly what it is. I love all the older style colours. I pretty much styled the car around how a lot of the europeans do mk1s. Original colours, tucking narrow BBS wheels, tan interiors (yet to be trimmed properly), black trim to break the paint up, etc
