Just wondered if anyone was going up to the NEC this wkend, I checked future events but no mention.
I am going up on Friday for the day in the Ace, (outlawed 356) if I can get the clutch sorted, think the cable has snapped.
Regards
Stephen

Would have gone if we were displaying, otherwise it's a bit expensive and a fair journey.

Noticed a few comments about cost of this event.
If you go on to show website , go to Buy Tickets section and enter CLUBS09 in Special Offer code - you get a huge reduction. I think I got Saturday tickets for just £13.
You can only get 2 tickets per application.
See you there !

It's my sons b'day on Friday, he doesn't want a party but instead wants to go to the classic car show. I suppose I'll have to go on Saturday
.
He's only 8, looks like I've brought him up well
The wifes not too happy

Not a bad show, the Top Gear Live show was crap, just a repeat of every other year really.
Some great cars, check put the Red 356 carrera for sale in hall one cant remember the stand number but can remember the price £275000 that has to be the most expensive yet, not that good a car not for that money anyway.
Picked up some good books in the market and a few tools
Terrible drive back in hurricane winds and driving rain, but the Ace performed faultlessly.
My friends 1971 911 s broke down, the alternator gave up and so did the lights and windscreen wipers with it.

Just back and I thought it was an excellent show....but I haven't been for quite a few years....I think my fave was a Citroen DS for £55k
I'll post a couple of piccies tomorrow....not a whole pile of early Porsche interest tho...I think this is show we ought to think about organsing ourselves for next year
