I agree not worth 29 pound to get in, first time I've ever paid! Always had free tickets! But still thought it was a good show, but roll on the summer now and the shows......

i was there friday. i have been there for the last 6 years and this year was my last as it has over priced it self £29 for a smaller show and £8 to park car. no new rally cars ford never even had a fiesta s2000 there. lot of trade stands engineering stands not there but at £2500 for a 5 and a half meter stand i can see why. not worth it

I was amazed at the price, seemed very high to me.

Good show though i thought, better than I expected in the current financial climate.

I was working though so only got limited time free to look around.
