You will have to go down next year Dan as yours will be the first on the list :signLOL:

Haha I'm game for that Andy! There best be some cars alongside me tho  :happy2:

I didn't go till about 12 today so we got soaked lol some decent cars though. Shame that not many proper cars that get driven get into show n shine it's all about scraping the floor these days!

Yeah I get that Mitch, loads of air ride and splits and there called builds?! Not really!! Well not in my eyes. I couldn't do a lot of shows like this tho cause it's just same cars, same people, different showgrounds!
I did have a good look round the car park on the way out and to be fair there was better daily used stuff out there  :smiley:
I did plan on strolling round the car park but it was pissing it down. And yeh my friends go to a show virtually every 2 weeks and 90% of cars they've seen before. I usually do 1 or 2 a year like this and try to get to TRAX but missed it this year :(
Vw festival is the one I want to do this year! At harewood house

And yeh bags and wheels isn't a build for me, and a lot just pay somebody to do it (not all but a lot) which kind of takes away a lot of the fun.
A lot of this is just jealousy from me like haha

Nah I get that @Mitch H

If I do a few shows I try make them different ie vwfestival, TOTB, trax, time attack. Totally different cars and disciplines!
I'll be at vwfestival on the clubstand, always love that show, awesome atmosphere and cars! Good to meet some members, Lots of old cars aswell as new to mix it up.
The main prob I have with some shows is the people who build cars to gain likes and try 'be different' to chase trophies and When they don't they're unhappy!
Build a car for you and if people like it fair enough  :happy2:

Ah no way, with the R32 rear end?
Really smart set up! Loving the new darker wheels too, I'm tempted to do the same to my pescaras for winter! Keep meaning to do it but can never be arsed getting the tyres taken off  :smiley:

Haha I sell and fit tyres for a living so I don't struggle there :P  yeh glad I did the r32 rear :) was an excuse to get a bcs system too which sounds sweet. I think I'm gunna get the front bumper resprayed after the winter and do the front centre splitter in the same grey as the rear diffuser so it all ties in :)

Ah well there's no excuses for you then!!  :smiley:

I'll get em done at some point, the powdercoater i use usually have a quick turnaround on popular colours.
Yeah that would smart be a smart little touch on the bumper! I've seen r32 bumpers with the chrome grill painted that sort of grey and that looked good as well.

Tried out a new product from auto finesse this morn called revive, pretty good at bringing back faded old plastic! Definitely see the difference  :happy2:
Think it'll only get better with a few coats, not bad for bringing back a 8 year old untreated grill!
