Indoors I saw some people touching the few roped-off display cars, such as rapping on the bodywork of one of the DTM cars; and what I believe was the owner of one particularly expensive MR2 in the car park CLIMBING OVER the rope and opening the door of another DTM car! I think that's the height of rudeness especially considering so many of the cars were unlocked and signposted as welcome for viewing or sitting in - only a handful were roped off and even then the ropes were very generous allowing you to get right up close to the car.

Perhaps a little better conduct next time, PHers... I know it's only a select few people letting down the rest but you'd expect respect considering we are all petrolheads here.
Fair enough on the first paragraph, but as MBW was open to the public on the same day as the PHSS (full public parking areas shown it was a busy day for them) means that not everyone in the building was a PHer. In fact the majority probably weren't.

Mercedes-Benz themselves felt the event went well, so we'll return in 2013 as usual smile
