Can't recall the name but there is a more northern big kit car show later in the year after Malvern isn't there? 

Not sure.. Can't say I've noticed one

Yea, I know they didn't move through choice, but their choice could have been in the centre of the country! It added an hour to the drive! 

Stoneleigh is the shorter of the x2 screenshots. The showground selected moved further to the south/West.. Making a day journey impossible now. It was just possible previously. 

 

Instead of seeing this as a reason not to attend, see it as a reason to attend: volunteer, camp over, get fed and watered for free!

The Kit and Sports Car Show at Lincoln is the one I was thinking of. 

 

It's on at the end of this month I believe? Although I also hear it's been cancelled?

Cancelled I’m afraid, and the announcement sounded like permanently.

Interesting, I did wonder if it would be free entry for kits. Not surprised it's not. Though they're not exactly expensive.

 

 

 

Not sure how the camping will work, though given the fee is for up to 6 people per pitch.

Is WSCC attending the Replica & Self Build show in an official capacity?

I notice that they're doing deals on group bookings, although entry is pretty cheap anyhow (and even cheaper if you display).

Also saw that Westfield Chesil are listed as an exhibitor, so looks like the factory are supporting.
