 The last few years it's been busy on the way in from early. As the show has got bigger, I intend to arrive at gates opening (or not long after) and look around the rest before lunch, otherwise it could be a very late day!

Just wanted to confirm that the post code for PH parking is SP2 8PX and not SP2 8BX as posted earlier in this thread? (I dont think Salisbury District Hospital would welcome 400+ PH cars turning up!)

Good day, well organised and lots to see. However there was one ginormous cock-up: I took wellies and an umbrella and I'm now sunburnt! Please check your Met Office booking return properly next year  . Photos in process.

Excellent day at Wilton House, as it was last year. Some fantastic cars to see & drool over with a good range of clubs & stands on show. Good drive down too mixing it with some super cars in my non super Audi. Thanks to the events organisers.

Just Back from Wilton and have to say excellent venuue, stunning cars but just one fly in the ointment for me and thats that I'm wondering why I bought VIP tickets and from what I experienced got bugger all extra for the my money. For instance I was guided into the public car park and when I asked is this the VIP area I was told no and sent about 50 yards further away from the entrance than where I was!. Thats having had to drive my car over grass that up past sill height and clumpy, to top it all the parking lady guides the next car in that close the chap couldn't open his doors. Hardly a VIP start.
Ok so I go into the show which over to the VIP area all very nice, nicely set up so this is looking good. However lunchtime comes into the VIP area I go again join the queue, Food reasonably priced very nice but nowhere to sit, so out on the grass myself wife and friends go and scramble around as best we can. so again VIP advantage gone.
I might be being a bit picky but I would have been better off parking in the ph car park joining the queues with everyone else and staying out on the lawns, next year I'll know better.

I'd've taken your VIP ticket - I wanted closer pics and different angle shots of the Mclaren GTR

Brilliant day. Thanks, Jay and everyone else who had a hand in organising and marshalling it. As above, little real advantage to paying extra for premium tickets. The inside of the house was good but not worth an extra £18 each. The exit road central grass hump was brushing the underside of my car most of the way out. Much worse and I could imagine something with less clearance becoming expensively wedged there. But, most importantly, we both had a really good day and the sun shone -despite all the forecasts. Unprocessed piccies here but I expect they're much the same as everyone else's http://www.flickr.com/photos/driverrob/sets/721576... (5-9 are for stitching for a panorama).
