Too be honest it's getting very boring now. The fastford stand is pretty much the only place you'll find some interesting cars, otherwise it's just littered with boring ST's. There's nothing you can do to them that'll make 'em stand out. It seems to be the future now I pulled out of this year for that reason, rather spend the money on the car and went using it to Germany. Far more fun.
I was there, thought it was a reasonably good day out, yes the focus and fiesta boys dominated the day, but to be fair it's not 1990's anymore so I guess it's to be expected, most of the old rs range stay in the garage now for one reason or another, still plenty of other cars to look at though, however I think people need to be made to pay anti lag tax as that was theme tune for the day and it started to wear a bit thin, as for the no parade lap that was a bummer but not the end of the world for me personally, trade stand turnout was good the auto jumble side was poor (but I managed to get what I needed to cobble a repair together for my car)I guess the likes of eBay, Facebook, fourums etc has took its toll on that side too, track action was ok but nothing like it used to be but kept us entertained for a few hours, at the end of the day it got me my family and a good friend out of the house it may not be like it used to be but as i see it the times have changed prob not for the best but at least car shows are still happening
All this talk of focus and fiestas etc means crap tbh...
Yep there are thousands of them.. but what other show do you go to where they are this many Cosworths? They were many many escorts and sierras there alike...
For those who didn't go look at the pics... I enjoyed it this year after I missed the last few because of the amount of escorts I seen.. usually 4 or 5 in a show is great.. road:track, standard, modified... great to get to see the nuances...
Times moved on, back in the days many Said same about us "cossie boys", offcourse the New Fords will out number us, and we Are to spoiled with the best Fords ever made,
but not everybody get a chance to have cossie, since most need a car for daily use too, so new st/rs and similar is a very good alternativ tbh...
