Their at most shows so I would guess so. I could be wrong but I don't think you can buy stuff from them on the day only order the stuff and give them the money.

Thats a shame, im never ordering from them again because theyve messed me about so much before. But their products arnt actually all that bad, when they finally give you what you orderd.

Me and Barry will be there with LSMOC, not sure how many cars we'll be taking yet though.

Omg please bring yur estate, I saw it last year but this year I want to make a point of stroking it lots! It is so so soooo yummy! :) (also I need to see Luna again, in fact bring them alllllll! - they all have such tasty colourssss!!!! ) !!! :( :( ;) :cry: :wub: :wub:


Maybe...... It will all depend if Doris passes her MOT and if Luna is finished by then (she's on a SORN for the first time in 7 years, since I've owned her) she's having some TLC to make her more glam!

I suspect I will be in one of them though! :)

Ok..... I think I've made my decision! It's a little far to take the estate on my own (I worry with her as she has given me a few issues including nearly going up in flames on the way to the IMM) so I will be in the gorgeous Luna who I have been working hard on to get up together for the start of the season!

Yes, but you have to pre-book I think, see contact details at start of this thread.

Entrants for the Test Hill trial and “Show N Shine” need to register in advance. Application forms can also be requested by email from the events team as detailed below. Places are limited and early booking is advised.

Also take to the circuits yourself......... :(
To whet your appetite for the event or to top off a perfect day, you can even include adrenalin fuelled Hot Laps out on the track with one of our Silver Arrows in a 6.2 litre V8 AMG for £15 per person.
