Hey this really does look very good! I could well be up for this one! Hmm dunno depends on the cash flow and if the car will be ready for then. Should be though. Also the AA auto route is telling me its only about 4 1/2 hours away that is a bonus!
Is it worth it? And will it be an official uk-polos.net stand?

Im getting excited now!

Why hasnt there been alot of intrest in this show? Are people being put of because its in wales? This looks like an amazing show folks come on lets get the names down for it and lets have a big uk-polos turn out.

Kinda - I go there once a year for several days to attend the Rally of Great Britain (sorry that's the Rally of South Wales) and I find thats plenty - you have to pay to get in
All TIC you understand and no offence meant by the comment

bodelwyddan.... rings a bell
ah yeah i remember seeing that having a banner on it when i went past on a coach a couple years back - it's got a paintballing place almost right next door, right?
i dont think the offputting is so much that it's in wales (north wales no less*), but that it's out of the way whichever way you slice it.
*this is coming from me having lived very happily in bangor for 3 years out of the last 5
EDIT ok... so it's by Rhyl... which makes it about 30 miles less out of the way for the majority of folk than bangor itself... and it's slap bangitty bang on the A55... so sue me

(probably why it seemed so remote, having to travel all that way and back on a knackered old charter coach)

I went last year just for one day & had a cracking time. Not sure if I will or not yet this year. Is it a week after Inters again?

No offence as Im not from wales myself, Im gonna be traveling probably 5 hours to get there! Is it gonna be worth it? Wots all TIC? It would just be good to see uk-polos on show. I went to inters last year and to be honest it wasnt as good as I thought it would be. I was very disappointed! Is Inters the best show the UK has to offer us?

it will be worth it because your car will be on the stand and people will be looking round it ulike at inters where only super cars go on display
