And probably Top Gear Live next door too if it is the same as last year.

Get there early. It gets very busy. To see it all you need to be methodical on how you get around in each hall. There are often some real gems hidden among all the usual boring stuff. It will take you most of the day to get around everything especially if you are looking at the bikes too.

Make a note of any odd size spanners you need. You will probably find them here.

Don't have a heart attack when you see how much parking cost.

Say hello to the MMA boys for me.

Dave's Challenger

I came to the show last year and spent 1/2hr wandering around your car - we also had quite a long chat about the car Dave. I don't know if you remember, but I said that if I could take home any car at that show it would be yours! I have just bought a challenger (in need of full restoration, so no one will be seeing it for some time), and this website is a fantastic resource. Sorry to hear you are now selling the car though.

I possibly do remember you but there were a few people like yourself showing great interest at that show so exactly which one you are I am not sure. :wink:

Don't be shy to start a thread on your car and update us with progress reports. And the more photos the better! We love to see them. :nod:

Oh and my Chally has not sold yet. With a cracked head and a high price it may never sell like that.
If I get desperate for the money i will have to drop the price and sell the car for sure. But if I can struggle on and keep the car i will just store it in the hope better times will come.
