Classic Car Show... How was it for you?

Well, what a fantastic weekend that was, although I've never been so knackered in my life!
Saw some great cars and met some interesting people, nice talking to the Historic Volkswagen Club next to us too.
Took a few good pictures too, some of the stand:



































The Historic Volkswagen Club:











And plenty of others:









































This looks like a My Little Pony with wheels!






This mk3 Cortina was amazing!








Aircooled is cool, V8's are cool, so an aircooled V8 is super cool!


However, car of the show for me was this Opel Commodore – Just amazing!








Anyway, thanks to all who gave up their time to help out on the stand, thanks to Nige, Keith (Tricky's dad) and VW for their campers, Steve and Mick for their bugs, Martin for his buggy and Dan for his notch, but especially Craig for organising the whole thing. Just letting you know all the hard work's appreciated mate!

p.s. apologies for the blurry shots, I'm learning how to use a new camera!

No worries mate. After all it was a top weekend!

Thanks to you as well and your good lady not only for manning then stand but keeping us fed and watered. Hope the ankle heals soon

Thanks also to those who helped out on the stand over the course of the weekend. Its going to be hard to beat that next year.....

It was a good show. Lots of nice kit, although I admit the mph bit didn't really interest me - maybe I'm getting old Good to see a few more vw's around the place too.
Thanks for sorting out the stand
