Yep, They'll be some TVRs there. Here's what I posted on the TVRCC forums:

Wonderland Car Show, Southwell, Notts Sun 31st May

As last year East Mids & South Yorks regions have booked a space for members to display their cars at the Wonderland Classic & Sports Car Show at Southwell Racecourse, Nottinghamshire on Sunday 31st May. The racecourse is to the east of Southwell with the entrance off the A612.

Although they usually require prepayment for club cars to be displayed they've agreed that our members will be allowed to pay on the gate. They've said they don't want to put off any TVRs from coming

Cost is £7 per car including driver and one passenger. Extra passengers (Cerbera owners) are £4 each.

This price will allow entry for two days, Saturday as well as Sunday. But we'll only have a TVRCC area on the Sunday. On the Saturday you can still attend but in the general classic & sport car area.

This show is run by the local Capri club in conjunction with The Independent Porsche Enthusiasts Club (Let's not get out done by the 'Beetle' drivers ). The event website is here http://www.capriclub2000.co.uk/Wond09%20Home%20pag...

Again the trusty East Mids & South Yorks gazebos will be out with all our flags and if you want to help put them up we'll be there from about 9am. The event runs until around 4pm although you can leave when you wish.

There are some photos of our cars at last year's show here http://www.tvrcc-eastmidlands.co.uk/gallerym.asp?g...
It rained last year, but I'm sure it'll be sunny this time

As always anyone with a TVR is welcome to come and display their car in our area.

This is good friendly show. Don't forget a picnic and a folding chair.

Any questions please let me know.

Tony

Just a quick update. I went along to the show today for a few hours as the weather was great and it's just a few miles from me.

Some important bits for those thinking of going tomorrow

1. The A612 through the centre of Southwell is closed. If you're approaching from Nottingham on the A612 just follow the diversion signs. You'll come out back on the A612 by the petrol station next to the show entrance.

2. The organisers think tomorrow may be pretty busy and have asked if as many cars for display as possible get there by 10am (ie. when it's open to the public). If you can't get there for 10 that should still be OK but the earlier the better please.

3. The TVRs may be in a different area this year. This may be be next to the pavillion and we'll be with the Porsche Club and American muscle cars.
