blue ass fly Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 A mate of mine is badgering me to go but ime not convinced Is it a case of seen one - seen them all Anyone been to previous shows ? Quote
stephenh Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Yes, and I should think lots of the WSCC members have! Quote
CrisisWolf Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Was going to go - but for £32 + booking fees and £10 parking for companies to try and sell me stuff I'm not convinced! Was going to go Sunday. If it was £20-£25 and free parking I'd go again. 1 Quote
B.RAD Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Not sure Steve but hope so as I'm going up on Saturday with Russ, Mart, Glutey and poss some others! Got a long shopping list.......uh oh! 1 Quote
Barry Ashcroft Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I'm going Saturday but I'm annoyed at the price Quote
Stuart Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Its only a fiver to park at the railway station at weekends and about a ten minute walk to the main halls. Quote
Northwarks Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I took my son last year, was OK, expensive day when you include parking. Live action arena was ...well ... predictable but loud and a chuckle. I got the feeling the best days were the trade days with more trade stands etc. It's good to get up close to the cars and some of the personalities. Really enjoyed Martin Brundle doing his Q&A but I don't think he's there this year. I enjoyed the auction stand to be honest, some wonderful cars going under the hammer. I managed to get some bits and pieces, cheaper than eBay, so not all doom and gloom - I'm off there on Saturday, only live 20mins away so be daft not to - I have a small shopping list ..... Quote
guyeds Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Wait til next month and go to Race Retro at Stoneleigh, much more fun imho and half the price! Quote
SootySport Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 It has gotten expensive in the last couple years, parking charge, entrance to the show and the Live Arena has an extra charge on top of that. I would go if I had a decent shopping list but I haven't this year. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Had planned on going this year, but suspect I'll give it a miss, (prefer going on a trade day when the interesting stuff is open) but weekend is going to be the only choice this year... I can be a bit same old, same old, if you're just going for a wander, but if you go with a plan, for specific stuff you want to see, or a shopping list, it can be really good. It does work out a dear old day though, even without buying things from stands! Quote
Marto303 Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Shopping list ready, rail ticket bought, roll on the weekend Quote
Pistol Pete Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I much prefer race retro, how the autosport show was originally. Quote
