kevin Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 just to let everyone know that its the first classic car show of the year at battlebridge essex next weekend (10th may).. normally a good show this,plenty of old fords and many other makes and car clubs attend these shows,with a big auto jumble.... would advise anyone who wants to go (get there early) as it gets rammed out...it officially opens at 10am to 5pm...but you can normally get in before that.... its a £5 to get in... kev.
mk2cortinadan Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 just been told by the owners no admittance on the day pre booked only!!! and no cars after 1980 think this decision has been forced by the essex constabulary we at buysellcortina have booked a stand already but i for one am dismayed at the decision not to let entry on the day i hope some people come and ask politely! to get in without our cars these shows would die
kevin Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Posted May 3, 2009 yes !! ive found out this aswell since i started the thread !!! the last event in september was chaos,and there was huge traffic problems within that area most of the day..the police was involved aswell as there was a few minor accidents outside & loads of over heated classics.. all in all though,it is a great show,but has outgrown the venue now..i was taking my rs2 but wont be now as its not booked in and to late now..i guess this will be the case for many people.. glad they,ve pulled the plug on cars built after 1980,as there was the subaru,mr2 clubs etc coming in (sorry in my eyes these aint classis cars) lets see what happens next week,and yes im sure your question will be asked many times at the gate !!!
