| glad i missed that then! could have been driving home with a wooden pole through my windscreen. i thought i was good to see the uber low motors and the rats. but the rest just seem to form one huge blob of sytle in various colours. but it was worth going as i said above, but also to see the odd few motors that take modifying to the next level, EI t3d's white mk3 and the red low low LOW vr6 on hibollox. and for that reason i will be going again next year. |

| I thought it was pretty good, nice weather (i got a little burnt too), great to catch up with people again and excellent turnout for the convoy etc. Em and the kids quite enjoyed it too. Only thing i found disapointing was there were not many trade stands or autojumble etc Im sure i will go next year just cos its so close.  _________________ 10% DISCOUNT FOR FENDUBBERS MEMBERS...PM ME! |

| Hear what your saying lee abit getting bored, but every time i walked round i see something different as car kept turning up as time went on. think its not a bad show for a 10er, agree with martin about the trade stands though. _________________  Cabby gone but not forgoten. |

| Yep, thought it was ok. Not nearly enough to do tho. And like Lee said, one walk around and you've pretty much seen everything. And more stalls would've been better. The convoy down there was awesome though! Seemed to me like a bit of a Wheel-Whores outing to be fair. Nothing wrong with it, but I'd have been just as happy/happier at the monthly meet  (thats a good thing!) Was cool to meet a couple more people that I hadn't spoken to before! Good day all in all  |

| BugJam for stalls/stands. Edition38 for people, chillaxing, and gettin drunk. Players etc for something interesting to do on a sunday. All including VAGness obviously  Thats just my opinion anyway. |

| i thought the same as you guys (and even the wife agreed) not much to do once you'd walked around. small jumble area and bugger all stands to spend money on. no free stickers on entry either but still a good show for a tenner  the guy in the transit van at Birchanger services getting the hump was my highlight of the day. he was stuck behind us all why we was waiting for Lee to get his truck started  . nice weather (i too got burnt), some nice motors, and a good catch up......overall a good day. too close to me not to go so i'll be there next year but this time it'll be in the caddy |

| not a bad day to be honest, i think most of you hit the nail on the head, some nice cars and a few good ideas popped up but after a walkround or two it became a bit repetitive, sorry i had to shoot off at the services Lee but the phone was going haywire and had to take the call. anyway sounds like you picked it up a gear on the way home not bad for a tenner but could do better. good to meet more of you all though and the m11 meet up was like military precision.....beautiful!! |
