Shouldn't Pistonheads have an article up about Stoneleigh by now?
No need, just read last years. Or the year before's. To be honest I quite enjoyed the show but it is a bit samey, no new attractions and glad I didn't persuade the grandkids to come, they'd have been bored rigid and it'd have been, "are we going home yet" all afternoon.

Don't know what the organisers can or should do to spice it up a bit, but as a show for grown up's and Dad's to pick up hard to find bits and tools and stuff, it's pretty good.
I didn't go this year. Last year I thought that 75% of those there had been at the first one I went to in 1985, just lighter of hair.

We went through 36 rear tyres at the weekend whistle

I would have said the same thing but my son and his wife surprised us by bringing along our three year old grandson and he absolutely loved it. They had to drag him home in the end.

I was seriously impressed with the abuse those two cars put up with.
