Providing everything goes to plan...

1 : buster.g40 - G40

2 : 13kpologt - gt+1/2

3 : tobyk - S6

4 : kwijibo_coupe - G40

But we shall see! ~£250 on fuel alone in the Audi would be quite a big hit.

I reckon going down on the Wednesday is the best plan, see if we can find something to do during the day on Thursday. I know i'm sad and immature but Chessington, Alton Towers and Thorpe Park are all within 90 miles of Billing... Plus the schools aren't off til end of July so traffic shouldn't be tooooo bad.

On the car Mr Steven, not sure what to come in :lol:

I've booked from 29th June til 16th July haha

I need to re-arrange my holiday bookings - hopefully there are enough holidays left at that time!!!

I was thinking about popping down for this, it's at a much different time of year though! I'd be driving down on the Friday night though I suspect. Not sure what like the fuel economy will be in the Polo but it shouldn't be too bad...

Good to see the Scottish convoy still going strong. It is a highlight of the show!

oye cheeky! i object to point number two ;) emailed them on the 4th august last year to be told that the bikers booked it already. every other date available seemed to clash with something other people wanted to do
