Its the biggest all ford show in europe so that should give you some idea and plenty of security and cctv on site, my advice would be to hook up with your nearest club and get a stand pass, that way you stay with your car all day or book through me for the one brand stand of passionFORD

are you on a stand or leaving it in the public car park?
Stands are much safer than the car parks

If its the car park I wouldnt be too happy if it where mine.

Its generally safe however there have been cases of car theft and a few break ins.

Club stands are basically specific areas put aside for individual club members to park their cars altogether. It's not really as fancy as it sounds.
PM'd as well.

some of the big clubs may have a spare stand pass, but normally you book your tickets through a club to obtain one, your best bet is get along to a local club meet or come on the PASSIONFORD stand

It means you will be part of the show and not just a visitor, Plus your car will be near by rather than parked outside the show.
