Well it was a good location,but for some reason there was a lack of Vuax cars at the show,it seams as what the event is"was" used to be a ford show,but this year they tryed to get vauxhalls as well,whether it was just badly advertised or what im not sure? but anyway my self Mike cowley and Adam (wardyworld on NL) whent over to have a look and just though i would post my pics up to show what cars there was(didnt take too many an no fords mainlt as i didnt have enough batery etc as there was some nice ones)

PVG stand

Mike cowley's 1.6 8v turbo in forground,there was only four cars (if you include mikes,as we did just turn up and park it on the stand,matt was ok with this though) ;)

I'm not sure mate, it was all a bit unorganised, probably could of just drove in and filled out a form with the cruise site as the club and entered that way. :?
