Anyone off here interested in going to this? Only a short blast up the M11 for most of you!

Into its 3rd year now and a good, chilled out,little show thats growing every year (over 300 cars last year!). Entry is only £4 on the gate with overnight camping on saturday night. The show is for both air and watercooled dubs and also features a beer tent, bbq, kids entertainment, show n shine, autojumble, entertainment, club & trade stands, bbq & cars for sale and sponsored by HIC!

Held at the high school in Stansted on 12/04/08, check out the website for more info: http://www.elementalvw.org.uk/

I even won a trophy there last year! (best other watercooled!)

I have been very year since it started and really enjoyed it everytime. Its fairly small but has a good laid back vibe with a nice mix of air and watercooled, well worth a 15min drive and £4 entry i reckon. Only real problem could be weather as its outside in April, they have been lucky with the weather for the past 2years.

There is a small review of the 2007 show on the HIC website here:

looks like a cool show, and its really not that far. i haven't been to many vw shows with air-cooled rides, all the more reason to go!

Went to this the first year it was running and had a real good time,missed last year but will defo be going this time round! Hopefully its got the same chilled out vibe as the first year.

im planning to camp over this year as loads of my mates did last time and had a right laugh (i went home as it was only 10mins away!), might even see if i can pursuade the mrs too as we just picked up a slammed mk2 gti for her tonight and she is well chuffed with it so might be a bit more enthusiastic about the shows now Cool

Hi guys and gals

Autocab passed me the link to say that some of you were considering coming. Would you guys like a plot for a club stand at the show? You'd all be very welcome. Let me know if you are interested and I can sort it out.

Thanks
