Any of you lot been and done this before, if so what is the general deal of what happens on the Thursday turn up day?

 

don't forget, we gotta make Colin feel at home, so the northern show way is, you gotta bring your folding table and chairs, tartan blanket and a picnic, set that lot up behind the car, and sit there with your hanky on your head tied at all 4 corners, and when the public ask questions, just ignore them as tho they weren't there, oh and don't forget to put the retro radio on the back seat

Anyone got any idea about using that visitors code, I am assuming it give us a discount off of buying tickets to the show? cheers.

doesn't seem to make any difference right up until paying, and I don't want to actually pay as then there is no way back, or is the discount not really worth worrying about?

ive never had to clean or polish mine,

better take a trip to Halfrauds then lol

I was due to take mine to the NEC a few years ago, but it never got finished in time, however, the advice I was given at the time, was to take a car cover to put over it over night, as the dust generated by all the walkers during the day settles overnight, covering the cars in dust that has to be cleaned off before opening the next day, but a good quality cover limits the cleaning

Covers...covers.....I was hoping to get some of those Lycra clad insurance ladies with them there big boobies to drape themselfs over my car ! Dam site more interesting than a plain grey cover.??

That new code works a treat, thanks.

But hopefully won't need it as much if we are allowed the two freebies per day. 

Really looking forward to this now, and I may even be there for the whole duration, I know that will only make you all feel a little more warm and fuzzy inside.......:mrgreen:

Just now looking at car shampoo, clay bar, fine polishing compound and a top coat of good old MER..:thumbsup:

Wear your sunglasses chaps, she will shine like a big white shiney thing.....

Anyway, to make me feel better here is one almost finished after a good old fine wire wool and soapy water clean, I still need to t-cut the white areas. I have even wire wooled the back of the wheels as they white paint and given them a coat of MER......a little ocd, but if your gonna do it, may as well do it properly------obviously without dropping the c***s!.....and tyres still need black n shiney applied.
