I agree with Westy. i think it's the best all-make show of the year. This was the first time I'd been for a few years & thought it was good.
There were some nice birds..but lots were proper rough ..as normal. If you want decent birds go to a lap dancing club. I go to car shows for the cars. Any top birds that are there are a bonus.
Full of chavs ? No. Chavs do not own Cossies, Evos, Scoobies, Skylines....
Some chav cars ? Yes. There's bound to be at ANY non-one make car show.
If you don't like them types of car, stay away from them. Silverstone is fkin HUGE. There's plenty of other things to look at.
Yes there's queues. Get there early & it isn't as bad. I also feel that there is enough at the show to make it a 2 day event. This will also benefit the queues as some will go on the saturday instead...but Sunday car shows are always busy as a lot of people work saturdays so cannot get time off.
Food/drink at the catering vans was also mega expensive. Big surprise there Rip off imo..but if you don't have any food/drink: you have to pay it or starve/ dehydrate. Especially in that heat yesterday. Weather was top.
£1.60 for a bottle of water.
£4.80 for a 1/4 lb cheeseburger.
£2 for some fries.
Wrong !!
Enjoyed it overall tho & saw some very tidy cars. (Nice track fiesta Cossie parked in with some megane turbuts)

I'd say about 90% of the girls there were munters and would look better with their clothes on
It is a chav fest might as well re name it Max Power
As for the ques..... took me nearly 3/4 of an hour to get out of where the pf stand was
Spent most of the day in brooklands

I liked it. I was on the Briskoda stand (obvious really seeing as I own a Fabia). No q at 6.15am and no q out if you didnt go the sheep way, go under the track next time.
I went on the 0-60 and hit 8.86sec, first run was 10.something but got far too much wheelspin. 8.86 isnt bad for a 100bhp diesel engine.
In all looked like some top cars there that looked like they were well looked after and cared for, which it doesnt matter what make you have, it shows up every time!
Well done everyone

I really enjouyed the show!
I was in 2 minds about going but had to pick some stuff up anyway so that swung it really.
I was expecting a chav fest bodykit wonderland but infact there were loads of superb cars on display, loads of fit birds walking around too although some of the "models" were rotters
0-60 was entertaining as usual and couldnt complain about the weather either!
Stopped at Brackley Tescos en route so didnt have to pay for Silverstone food
Top day!
Advance tickets are only a tenner anyway so it wasnt even too pricey for me

Was a Good Show overall. The Weather was right for the event (even though the morning suggested otherwise), and arguably was one of the best shows this year (compared to ford enthusiasts' at Donny and Ultimateford at Stoneleigh. Shame I had to leave at 3.
It's one I'll consider popping along to next year.

Wasnt a Bad show, Not as good as past years.... Had a quick wander around, went and checked out the Red line stand as my mates E46 M3 was on there, hung around chatting to him for a bit then went and watched the track action.... Loved the Drifting

g0od day but the shows are gettin a bit boring now and if i wanted to see saxos i could go to mcdonalds ,i think the best one in my view was ten of the best 4 for cars and racing, it was a pukka day lovely weather and well worth the 4 hour drive for the monster cars i saw

i thoroughly enjoyed the day - even if the car suffered from a minor boost problem on my second session and then on the third session completely blowing my boost hose off
Defo will go again next year and as for the queues - serves you all right for getting the motorway
Mates and I left Slough about 8.45 and were at the gate by 9.45 - I had a briefing at 10 There are no cars on the route we take there and back. Although I did have to tow my mates cossie home when it died halfway home. So that was one completely dead cossie (bottom end fooked) and my towing it with hardly any boost and LOUD motherfookin exhaust
Still will be back next year to blitz a few more skylines
