So who's going and what are you buying? We'll be going Tuesday, hopefully a quiet midweek day, but what are you after?

We went to the Feb one intending to just buy a GasIt cylinder kit and ended up trading in our 1 year old Swift M/H for a brand new Elddis so I HOPE we don't do that again. But of course if SWMBO tells me that's what I want to do, then that's what I'll do biggrin

But what are you buying?

Oh and just a reminder, the NEC and Solihull Trading Standards between them have stitched us consumers up like a kipper and the protection we all THOUGHT we had with the Distance Selling Regulations don't apply. So no buyer's remorse. If you sign an order at the show, you can't cancel it. Helpful eh?

Will not be going this year, went last year and went mainly for accessories that were not for sale anywhere. October show seems to be all about new vans. We inquired were offered more then we paid for our second hand van and a deal on new but still didn’t seem worth the extra monthly outlay as we owned the one we still have. Prefer the outdoor shows that seem to encourage the smaller stands.

Going on the last day, the Sunday.

I'm looking to buy a rear view camera for the back of the caravan. Hopefully won't be coming away with a new caravan too but you never know.

Wanted to go this year to look at the various VW conversions, but on holiday, so will go to the one in February.

We went last year. Good show for looking around new stuff but not for much else imho.
