Any trade people going this year?

i dont usually go, only about every four years or so, is it going to be worth going to ?

any people with any trade special tickets I get in with motor trade and with MSA licence, will they just accept anyone on the trade days, i hate public days,

your thoughts on this years show or last years greatly recieved !

I won't be going this year I've been going every year for about 20 years but the show is getting worse and worse each year The manufacturers haven't got the money to spend and the live action has been watered down and it's all very samey and predictable I also resent paying Ł7-8 for parking when you've paid Ł30 each to get in then you get fleeced for lunch too.

Great shame but it's not the show it was and this year it will be even worse

The trade show is sometimes the interesting bit (thurs/fri) and also maybe the aftermarket show to a degree. Public days are just all legs and chests lol

So come along Sat/Sun for the best or more interesting views
