jak Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Never been myself, does n't usually get good reviews. However as I live local I might go this year. John Quote
perksy Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 It Ain't Stoneleigh Depends how far you have to travel to go there Went once but it's a bit of a trek from here... Quote
Major Stare Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Visited once as only 20ish mins away........... never again Hardly any cars and only a few small stalls Quote
MVS Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 I went last year and there were a hell of a lot of R Hoods and a large cobra contingent. There were a few manufacturers and a fair few trade stands CBS Europa spares and a lot of smaller ones. The weather was stunning so maybe that helped the turn out. Only a handful of Westies though. I will be going, but wouldn't consider it if it was more than a couple of hours drive. Finally there seemed a hell of a lot more there than at Harrogate last year. Quote
Westy1700 Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 won the concours there for several years....t'was an absolute b***h to keep the dust off the cars tho' 'miss kitcar 1989' made up for it tho' Quote
Buzz Billsberry Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Its not a great show but if your looking for fettling bits then have a look. I would go but I will be visiting a little unknown race @ Le-Mans in France for 10 days! Buzz Quote

2L_Pinto_Westfield Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Not sure if i want to go now. Take me a couple of hours to get there so not sure if i can be bothered with the trek! Although just had the westie fitted with stage 2 kent cams so would love to give her a good blast. Quote
