If it was a Group/Club type show then yes I would have been interested, but this is Individual so we will be spaced out all over the place. We couldnt stand around and kick our tyres together

My thoughts exactly.......if I wanna see bmw's, focus' and audi......I'll go to Tescos car park.

It's one of my all time favourite pastimes, attending classic car shows.....but theres not many about now.

yep if i parked in that lot it would appear i lost my way to the car park
to be fair i have more or less a full summer calendar with shows planned here in west yorks, however they are a mixture of classic car shows and hotrod shows but a few are a 2hr drive away !
subject to being able afford the petrol

All major shows are down south, so it makes it a difficult and more expensive for us.

In saying that, fuel is coming down slowly.

this is north for me. I am in Essex, a bit further south past Stansted Airport

2 hr drive to billing for me at a steady pace, do it about 4 times a year for shows, usually takes just a 1/4 tank from full to get there, 1/2 tank there and back in the insignia.

Central Scotland to Cleethorpes. Visited family in Lincoln, Louth, Binbrook and Sleaford then home......689 miles and still had over 1/4 tank left.

i cant justify derv for use on a daily/ weekly/ monthly basis just don't do miles, its only theses few trips i would be better with derv though.
