Subject says it all really.

This is an annual event held at the Pencoed Agricultural College just off J35 M4.

My Atom is hardly a 'classic car' but I'm gonna polish it up and be there! Come say hi.

Sorry, should have put the link in the original post

www.swccc.net/home.htm

Turn up on the day, pay £10 late entrance fee (after 1st April) would have been free otherwise!

I've never attended one of these events before but as it's right on my doorstep I thought it might make a nice day out.

Just a quick thread hijack, but do you think Wales could do with a 'prestige and performance' car show?

Possibly. Probably the best turn out of cars like that was at the Ferrari Owners Club run in December when there were about 80 Ferrari, Aston, TVR, Lotus etc.

The organbiser has resigned though so dont know if they will do another one.

There was a big car show at Margam Park a while back. I think it was a Ford show but many breeds on show.

Typical of the British weather it p****d down all day and that spoils it so much.

I was actually thinking of a 'new' car show, so that the fancy dealerships in Cardiff can show off their wares. It would all be under canvass, so no probs about the rain. Would also build in a meet for PH peeps to bring their own cars.
