Interested.

 

170-200 miles each way (depending on route) means it's not a daytrip. Additionally, I hate camping, so I shall likely be sleeping in the car, but at least it's a big car this time.

 

We shall see, I shan't say yay or nay at this point, merely that I'd like to.

I'm guessing this event is still all good to go as i haven't seen Betaboy on here for a few weeks.

I'll come probably in the Polonez... Wiltshire. Hmm, it took me 11 hours to pick up some wheel from Salisbury in the Samba a few years ago. Im in north Yorkshire

Hi All

 

Sorry - not been online for a while. Work's been busy and a glass of white going over my laptop at home hasn't helped either.

 

And too many Lancia's taking up too much of my time ... but hey with success. Two Beta saloons MOTd last week, so that's three I've got on the road at the moment.

 

14th July still on as far as I'm concerned.

 

I'm looking forward to seeing all your old chod in Wiltshire!

I hope there'll be an opportunity for us to try out each other's shite? I'm dying to pilot a Polonez!

This is all most wonderful news - looking forward to donating some aromatic exhaust fumes and lots of smoke!!

Having spent many drunken afternoon/evenings in the presence of Betaboy and his epic Lancia collection, I can vouch for his boundless hospitality. When he says he has a field for parking, he's not joking - it's huge. The Lancia-afflicted usually decamp there after Bristol Auto Moto, when most of the UK's classic Italian car collection fills it.

 

Be prepared to learn everything you ever wanted to know about the differences between a Series 1, 2, 2.5 and 3 Beta Saloon, the Chronicles of Gamma and Betaboy's love of autoboxes. Betaboy forgot to mention the ubershite-deluxe comfort that is his 70's Thomson Mini Glen caravan.

Sounds like the perfect holiday! Cannot wait. I hope someone is bringing at least one of those pathetic plastic wind-breaks and some 'sure to collapse' deckchairs for the full holiday vibe?

Not too far from me. Count me in, in either my own Lancia or my Mk1 Fiesta.

We had one of those! :lol: I remember coming home very late one night, 1985-ish, and finding I didn't have my front door key. The TMG was in the back garden, unlocked, so I bedded down in there. Cosy... :D Around that time a Welsh mate came to stay, and with all the bedrooms occupied, he slept in the van for a week. He'd never slept in a caravan before, and loved it.

Only just found this thread being a newby.

Definitely up for this!

I'll be in my Iveco Camper..Luxury!

Going to Wiltshire tomorrow funnily enough for a week.

Posted

Wanna go but SOOOO far! Ok, so 100% of my last 4 shite purchases have been this far but argh, stupid real life might get in the way of this these days :evil: But! depending on my circs, I might even be down London way (innit) for some workage so could include this in the event. Hope so.

Posted

I went to the VBOA weekend at Billing every year so the distance doesnt bother me.

 

I havent been going to shows recently due to other commitments but I'd definitely be up for this in 2012 or 13!

 

The only problem is that I own 3 cars that would probably be refused entry!!

 

Maybe if its 2013 then I'd have a chance of acquiring something shite in the meantime lol!

Tesco £2 smart price festival tent

Enough alcohol to sedate a whale

Whats not to like? :mrgreen:

Posted

I'd love to come to this but have 2 Open Uni residential schools to do this summer, so more than anythign I can't afford the time - which is a shame. :(

Posted

Are you close to this place; looks like fun....

The regulars are always welcoming of new faces, so you'll soon find yourself on the recieving end of some life threatening profanities.

We really need to sticky this and give it a title change

 

ShiteStock 2012 - July 14th

 

 

My new allegros former home was the attwell wilson museum. Would be nice to take it back there.

Posted

I think a trip to the Attwell Wilson Motor Museum in Calne on the Sunday morning is a must do, to sign off Shitefest 2012!

 

It's only about 10 miles from me.

 

I have now completely lost track of numbers attending - anyone out there good at counting?

Posted

I've 'stickied' this thread, but I don't think I can change the title - I think Betaboy will have to do that (assuming you want the title changing).

Posted

How do I change the title and keep it changed? Do I just change the original post title?

I think so. Give it a go & see what happens...........
