I'll be there in a tatty mk1 yellow Citroën Visa. And my friend Andy will be there in his immaculate, concours winning mk1 yellow Citroën Visa. That's two thirds of all the remaining rhd mk1 Visas left in the UK 😀

I would like to go in my AS roffle win Visa, bit I shall have to wait until I have collected it to find out how Anneka Ricey it will be to fettle it adequately in time. If it's a no go, I'll be in a Rover 45 but very interested in checking out any and all Visas that may be present.

I've messaged the organisers this morning to to say we'll be around 20 cars so they have some idea of our numbers and confirmed that the cut off for letting them know exact numbers is 18th March.

Were you wanting to park up with the rest of us AS peeps @Tommyboy12?

Just coming back to you and we have managed to organize a convoy and will do a separate club stand for our club. Thanks for the offer though!

[MondeoBlues]

Any Midlands based Shiters up for meeting up at Frankley services on the M5 and forming a convoy?

If I’m going, then yes, I live about 5 minutes away from Frankley Services.

I'm missed off the list, but will join with the 924 if I don't have to be there too early

[Schaefft]

I haven't bought a ticket yet but add me to the list. I might connect it with picking up a very "easy to spot" cheap Jag that was offered to me...

[Carl1981]

The Jag passed the MOT test this morning, so count me in!

Looking like a good attendance in the AS corner 

If you said you are coming but aren't on that list but would like to be, the deadline for numbers is tomorrow so please add yourselves 

[Sunny Jim]

No worries if you don't want to park up with other shiters but I've just gone back through the thread and the people I've tagged below either expressed an interest or said they were going but aren't on the list yet. We need to let the organisers know how many we'll be by tomorrow, 18th March. Cheers.

Oh for sure, I meant to add myself to the list but I couldn't make sense of it as it didn't seem to have everyone on there and I didn't want to inadvertently omit anyone by copying/pasting

I'd expect to be rightfully lynched if I parked my qashqai in the main event parking 😬😂

The tickets on the gate were the same price as online so even if I don't get it sorted on payday we're not far away if we do decide to come (think I've got the kids that weekend)

[Sunny Jim]

Future classic mate @beko1987 👍

[robt100]

@Sunny Jim I probably wont know until the day, and having the annual pass ill just park with the plebs and come see you guys if I do get there.

[dollywobbler]

We've currently got an issue with emails not coming through. Will report back. We'll extend deadline if we have to.

[Sunny Jim]

So far I've been communicating by FB messenger and Steph has been responding @dollywobbler. Will email tomorrow as well if required?

[dollywobbler]

Yes please. Email is the place where we keep all the details together.

Appreciate the tag, but I'm taking the Astra (2012 estate), which isn't quite 'Autoshite' enough yet. When I eventually get the Carlton back on the road (or something else shitey comes along) I'll be more than happy to join at a future show.

Good with me. First proper car event and forum meet up for me, how does it work when you arrive?

You walk in through the entrance path from the main general parking, then immediately get overwhelmed as it then spread out EVERYWHERE as far as the eye can see!

I know enough shiters that it won't take long to find someone, then as we wander round the crowd grows and you'll soon find it!

Then your big problem starts. There isn't enough time unless you run to look at both Rustival AND the motor museum stuff... I did too much inside stuff last time so need to stay outdoors more, I didn't see one entire bit of the show (in person, saw enough pics and videos after 🤷)

It's the first time I've attended a show or event with Autoshite, So I'll park with other shiters and put some faces to names if that's OK.

Obviously I’ve left this too late, if I want to attend and I’m coming in a two week old Jaecoo* which I’m leaving in the pleb parking I pay £18 and I’m good to go? Not been to one of these before. 
 

 

 

*I won’t be coming in a 26 plate Jaecoo, but am now very tempted to rent one for Shitfest ‘26. Maybe an Omoda as they seem less naff.
