I'd say it was 'to capacity'. I arrived at not long gone 7 and it was about 75% full already. The grassy bit was more or less full at peak but no trouble for anyone getting in our out. I'll post some pics when I get home.

Does Dorset count as South West?

The sleepy little north Dorset town of Sturminster Newton has a car show on the first Saturday of the month, which is free to enter, with no entry criteria (other than road-legality).

Been getting 120-130 cars per month in the last few.
Last month Sturminster Newton car show got 200 cars.

Pic just popped up on fb with my Jag in, and randomly an old image with my Focus in, in the old venue...









Amusingly the weather looks absolutely fine until July 1 then heavy rain, but at this remove I can't imagine that won't change...

I think he came together (so to speak) with the yellow one - that was IIRC Autumn 2021.

I planned to go, but my wifes train was late frown How busy was it ? It slightly put me off attending again after last month where everyone was getting blocked in by late arrivals.
I didn't go this month but a mate of mine did.
He said the parking has changed a little and is more organized now, after last months mess.

IS there a facebook group or something I can follow for more details?

There’s a page for the hall where info is shared, you do get updates on everything else going on at the hall though! laugh

I haven’t made it along to one yet this year, but hopefully will have a new motor in time for the next one!

Perfect thanks. That sounds good, what you getting?

Hopefully I'll be able to attend the one in mid-July, if so I'll start a post on here to see who's going as it would be good to get to know some people in the area.

The yellow one is owned by a lady named Sarah (recognised the private plate on closer inspection)

I changed out of an RS4 into a 6. I’ll be at the QS meet next Sunday and then hopefully along to the next Redhill. beer

Sorry I didn’t see you about to say hello, but I saw the Aston & the RS4, great colour choices, stunning.

If you are ever looking to sell the Aston, please let me know.
