Stoneleigh kit show?
 
Is any body going to the only show left this year? Just looked at the weather for Sunday and Monday and it could be rain coats and wellies all weekend which is never good for numbers.

I am going on Sunday and am taking the ex Time Team potter with me as he fancies a Brimoto (MEV) Rocket to replace his Tiger R6 and also an ex Falklands Chinook pilot who just fancies a look round, one spare seat which may be taken by a Spire builder. All with waterproof gear ;-)

I will be going on Sunday, hopefully in the roadster, unless the weather is really bad. Blue Haynes with V6 Cosworth.

I wanted to go but the times going to be better spent trying to finish my build off

TheArf 27th April 2016 08:28 AM

I'm going on Sunday, got my list of last bits I need so hopefully it will be crack on and get finished.
I will keep an eye open for you Jason.

Gutted, up until last night I thought I would be going but certain things have happened and now I won't make it.
Is this really the only kit car show left now?
Any recommendations for any other shows I can attend that will have some kit cars and trade stands?

Went today, excellent show with good weather all day but for a few spots of rain at about 4pm. A few less trade stands than last year maybe but lots to see. There seems some real confusion over the Mev, RTR, Brian, Rocket with all sorts of conflicting stories about who has rights or otherwise, personally not happy about RTR going into voluntary liquidation and immediately starting up again with the same car called Rocket 2 leaving unpaid creditors. Pity as it was the car my friend was wishing to build.
Nice to see some of the old favorites there and a generally good atmosphere and gosh, what a stunningly attractive young lady they had handing leaflets out on the Ultima stand - I definitely want one but am not sure if I meant the car .... oops! bit of a giveaway there ;-)

I also attended yesterday and had great time, the only disapointment I had was that CBS only had a token stand, don't get me wrong still an excellent service but they didn't have the usual selection and everything has to be ordered and then delivered, but free of charge. I can understand that the cost of pitches and accomodation for those manning the stands is steadily always rising as well as fuel costs they all have to tally up. but all in all a very good day. :)
