Autojumble & Classic Motor Show (arminghallevents.co.uk)

We can take it if it helps

@Paulyou can suggest it but I'm not sure what time Friday I'll be getting there Daughter is now a teacher and the Friday end of term day

Ok so with the last few years out the way, time to address the vboa show at Sywell from a club stand point of view.

What things would people like to see us as a club doing to make it a better event for us as a club 

Good weekend catching up with people just home hope all got home safe and sound 

jason newbody and family 6 man tent car unknown friday sat night

ethan and wife 4 man tent mk3 cav friday sat night

ADDED

I'd be up for it

amend mine to friday as well

and can you add EjBj ethan and kay no cav fridy to sunday 20man tent or 3 man tent

ADDED TO LIST

Won't be attending due to costing this year and current situation clinches it

If you can get into it a lump hammer on rear drums helps free them

As Andy said no drain in tank but remove the fuel line will get most of the fuel out

Careful with the tank estate tanks are specific hatch saloon won't replace it 

You can disconnect fuel line on offside chassiss tail in engine bay (rubber to plastic and put the rubber end in a petdol can as a a start point to get her running 

And good luck on the purchase restoration 

 i think you'll find you've doubled price but that would mean 2 cars entry to show the price at £25 is for the car for the 2 days £10 take that off your £50 and we agree

wow is that how it works? When i first saw the new pricing I thought "Great I may camp this year", thinking it would only cost me and the wife around £15 for the saturday, sat night, and the show day ... but if it's as you say it is then it's gonna cost a fair bit more... 

for you and the wife arriving Saturday going Sunday and camping on the Saturday night is £40 -20% if you book before end of December meaning it would be £32 

so if i got this right i travel up me the missus daughter and friends 4 of us 

its 4x £5 camping per night £20

its 4x £5 admission per day £20

and £5 per day for the car 

as i normally do friday saturday sunday that means £45 x 3 =£135 - discount if i book early 

if this is right i wont be attending as it not a cheap weekend and not being funny paying that money to sleep in a tent and S**t in a port-a-loo is beyond a joke the 45-50 we were paying for the car irrelevant of occupancy up to  4 people was acceptable but the new pricing if I have got it right is not and is beyond a joke for the facilitates to hand.

Please tell me I have got it wrong 

Ok I was slightly wrong it is £115 for my group of 4 for the weekend just been on vboa site to go through a booking at this price I very much doubt i will be there so to all i met at this show Thanks for the memories and enjoy.

Hopefully see you at some other events but i will not be attending this year at this cost are they trying to kill the show

  Reason mine is £20 less than i figured it to be is camping free for the sunday night

I must be missing something. Why?

think it was viva never really saw a car on there the stand immediately behind the tents on our pitch

it will give us parking for non cavaliers and makes our stand a bit bigger  

can we have the viva club display stand as part of ours plz

Holding off on the date as they were informed yesterday Silverstone is now that weekend as they moved it to avoid clashing with Wimbledon:)

toilets on a sunday as the day went on got quite bad again due to users lack of toilet training and disregard for the facillites and others. 

People had stuck paper towel in urinals then used them manged to miss the bowl when taking a number 2 

the posh loo's someone had found it comical to throw all the paper towels about and flood the sides.

Suggestion for toilets have one on each club stand for that club down to them to maintain  so more respect should be shown to it 

and others dotted about for general use 

Bit more clarity on costing and rules/regs in advance for events running e.g. track pricing the need for helmets and needing full arm coverings to take the car on the track 

Pricing for the weekend for 3 nights to me was acceptable but for an overnight stop £50/£60 seems steep (only stayed the 2 in the end due to needing RAC home  ) otherwise wouldn't have left until  today

Some other stalls might have helped the Bus/Farm Shop Brilliant saved on tesco run for small bits and what you forgot to bring.

Missing some of the other type stalls your sign shops; window tinters; wheel refurbers; the bric a brac/ nik nak stools for those not after car parts Like my missus the general merchandisers; Not going down the auto jumble side as we buy the parts up there will be less to be bought simples but was just the variety of different things missing my opinion.

But overall i had a Brilliant Time and a good Laugh with friends already made and met some new faces and look forward to the next event

The Planes taking off and landing during the day was added bonus of seeing some old school plane tech and stunt planes as a freebie on the weekend ; Might be a drawing point for Vboa to approach to see if a small show could be arranged to bring in outside of clubs footfall into the weekend .

That is pretty much most of the negatives i can think of that i see for the weekend otherwise as said i had a good laugh and enjoyed myself 

So I do  believe with a few tweaks that the weekend can be a really good event 

And our support the club can have an amazing social weekend 

Had fun as usual Saturday stand was a bit bare but about 10 cars on it but was a bit wet ground dried quick after rain.

Sunday was hot lot more day visitors to stand and club members displaying for the day

Venue has makings of a good show/site weather seemed to affect activites and numbers on saturday. But sunday with nice weather . more about stand was spacious for all to display and camp this year , At reps meating wasnt any  big news of trouble or behaviour concerns just to make sure you didnt let the kids on the runway side of the fencing.

Had spitfires bi-planes etc taking off and landing through out the day . So added bonus didn't take off early and were landed by early evening

if we get behind our club Mk2 Cav  then I belsieve we can make this a really good and enjoyable weekend for us as a Club to meet up and socialize 

Was nice to meet new faces this year and talk to Some. THANK YOU Andy King for club rep duties Sunday Morning at 830 AM my head really appreciated that.

And the track was fun my thanks to the track organisers for their assistance and taking my Daughter Toni out after the cars little mishap 

Going to start this year's Vboa rally off a day early on Thursday 4th July at Thorpe park hotel is Travelodge T5 Heathrow 2 day admission to Thorpe park for £95 for 2 people in double room So if anyone wants to meet a day b4 I'll be here

The chairman of Vboa isn't relayed to Billy Smart is he ???

Because this reminds me of a 3 ringed circus

Its ok  Andy im just sounding off i know you guys and John do your best for us. 

  I'm just hating the way it's starting to appear that Vboa seem to have no clue as to what their doing

Yes Paul the new venue does appear interesting drag strip and looks nicer grounds than MH but will it have the feel/vibe that MH had this year

Time will tell lets hope decision is made now and no more changes 

With all due respect what the is going on with the vboa and it's show for 2019 been notified via their Facebook page now billing is out and now another new location. When last I was aware it was billing and we were to vote as a club on way forwards weekend just gone I believe Now out the blue it is now at a new place. Can we please have some straight dialouge of what is happening cause all this chopping and changing is making this seem an utter shambles and more hassle than its worth sorry if I sound like having ago at people not meant to I know you guys do your best just fed up hearing it over Chinese rumours and other places
