Myself and Taffy20VT are going with the Fiatforum and will be on their stand.
Come and say hello!!

I'm going to be with there with a trade stall for my new venture www.cleanyourcar.co.uk Which is quite scary!

Anyway please come over and say hello and of course buy lots of products

I will be doing demo's all day on my car if all goes to plan and my better half will be selling.

Cheers Tim

Tim - If you need an opportunity to show off the porter cable and associated products on a rather swirly sprint blue then let me know

In all seriousness if i can get to this do you think you could bring along the polisher, transformer etc. if it arrives in time?

No probs will pop over and say hello.

Could do with a couple of cleaning bits!!

As long as I get my coop back from it's respray I'll be there. Is it the usual deal for Auto Italia Events? Will we be put with other coops?

It was last year at least - some pics from last year

YAY!
Well in that case ill be coming was worried that there would be no-one there :s

Might have to order me dump valve now question is will it get here so that i can fit it sat??? :s

I'll be coming along for it to be my first Coupe show - hopefully see you there. I'll be with my lady and my dog (white staffy/jack russel cross) so I should be easy to spot!

i will def be there in the arvo. don't like to drive the coupe at the mo as two bald tyres on front but will sort something out. Adam

Slimtim, maybe you could take a gazebo and have a car parked under it to demonstrate.
I'll be bringing one with me and if we don't use it you are more than welcome too!!

What sort of time are people getting there? I was thinking around 11ish, does that sound about right?.

The gates for the show open at 9am if this helps!!

Cheers for the offer, although I have already got a couple of gazbos. I was going to offer to do someones car, but it's just too much pressure to get it done in the time on the day. Instead, rather than hiring a van, we are coming down in a Audi and my coupe and demoing some of the products on my car. Also just had 400 leaflets made up that need distributing on the day. So i'm going to be plenty busy.

i am aiming for between 11 and 1pm

I got there for 11 last year and was fine getting in. For those coming from the south, there is a 'back way', I can't remember it, but it should be pretty obvious from looking at a map, you come off the M1 northbound a junction or so before you 'should' do, then there is a route through country lanes and a village which brings you to the entrance to Stanford Hall from the other direction where the queue to get in is a lot shorter. Fond memories of convoying up the M1 and along those roads in the Coupe with my mate in his 355 Spider, his dad in his 80s Alfa 33 Cloverleaf and about 15 members of the FOC, including 512s, 355 Challenge, 308s and even an F40 - the villagers could believe it

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh F4444440000000000
My favourite car god i dribble over those things AWESOME!!!

There's going to be a mini convoy from Chelmsford area heading up the A14 route, Couple of Coops and a Barchetta plus a load of punto's. Not sure on the time yet but I'll post as soon as I know. Anyone other convoy's we can hook up with?

best car so far for me was the enzo in the flesh, hated them till the owner let me sit in it at the end of the day

So who is going on the stand from this forum???
Just seen a map for the show and FCCUK have a stand plot opposite the Fiatforum stand.
I would have plumped to go on the stand for this forum but didn't notice anything posted so went with the fiatforum instead.
A little disappointed now but hey I'll pop over and say hello to whoever is there.

Dave

If there's a stand I'll be on it assuming we just turn up and say we're in the club? Flash our cards and rucksacks?

I'll be there about 1pm. Went last year, not many Coupes there though! It's a good day out so let's make sure we're there showing off our machines in force!

Unfortunately this clashes with England v Australia so unlikely to be there

See you all there.

Good turn out of coupes if a little scattered!!
Nice to meet who I met!!
How's the back of your neck slimtim, mine is very red!!

Good showing from the coupes, those ferrari's are 10 a penny going by todays numbers. I always thought the coupe was for a select few .Given the car a coat of Nattys paste wax I bought from SlimTim and have to say it seems great. Easy on and off and looks the buisness (and Im not on commission!). I even smell like I have taken an overdose of bubblegum now.

That's the one that smells like Hubba Bubba isn't it?!!!
Didn't know whether to smell it or eat it.
Didn't buy any as I'd end up licking it all back off my car!!
Biggest turn out I'd ever seen of porto blues too!!

Well, made it across for a few hours, nice to meet some new faces

A few pics of some coupes at the show, apologies to those whose I didn't get any pics of as I didn't have the camera with me all the time

From left to right, Taffy20VT's sprint blue, my porto blue with LE kit and far right a chap off the fiatforum who has had it 2 weeks!
