Have to say I thought about I but couldn't be bothered!
Last year the best bit was wandering the car park, too crowded to get a decent look at things inside.

I went.
Daft thing is, although I've loved Veedubs all my life, this is the very first Volkswagen event I've ever been to!
I enjoyed the show anyway.
Here are some pics (I hope);

I went, and thought it was quite good for a change! Overpriced though. At least this year there was a load of new stuff, not just old stuff rehashed.
Not many earlybays I'm afraid, but there's about 70 pics in my thread over on Dubtime;

Hi Grazy,
You're right, it was bloody freezing outside wasn't it!
No, that wasn't my van that you saw. I didn't bring mine actually. If it was an early bay I'd pop a piccy up for you. It's a bit of a timewarp bus like the blue deluxe that was stored away.
The bay in the top piccy was cool wasn't it. Did you notice that even the heater and ventilation control knobs were chrome!

Thats a slight understatement :roll: Did anyone see the baby blue crossover for sale in the corner for £11,995 :shock: Yes £11,995. Ok it had a full resto on it and was pretty clean but what a price
And it sold but the main thing was the people that bought it were happy as punch and vertually skipped away Suppose thats what its all about really, happy people As for the show some good rides although the bus section was seriously lacking some bays again :roll: Think we should put this right next year :wink:
Went for the whole weekend, our Early bay was on the LTV stand both days....
along with Trev (he designed the EB stickers, I bought a new one as the last went on pissed )
Bug In Bus
Opposite us on both days
Really clean
Our bed for the night...
spent our first night sleeping inside, couldn't believe how warm it was inside :wink:
There are almost 200 pics in the VWShows section of my website 8)

That beige bay was on my ferry tonight. Had a good look over it and a nice chat with the owner. He knew all about the site and even descibed MY bus to me. Nice work fella like i said im loving everything about that bus, colour, stance, wheels the lot. Hope you got back to Germany OK if your reading this. Drop me a PM with a few more detals and pictures of what we talked about please.

I went on the Saturday it was bloody freezing! I took the bus on its, ahem German number plates as its not registered yet! It was great to back into the swing of things, sold some parts met some peeps and had an excellent day, it was good to get back behind the wheel of a vw again too.
Picked some bargains up from the swap meet which I managed to walk round without getting crushed, which must be a first!
In all had a great day out.
Popped down on the Sunday as well to sell more parts and had another wander around the car park and for sale area (as the weather was 100% better)and there were some highly varying prices for some nice and some ropey cars.
Had a guy offer me 8k for my bus too, I had left it on the grass near the jacked up french T2 and returned to find a hand written note on it! Needless to say I said no thankyou !

Good weekend for me. I went in the Square for speed and efficiency (and the van is in bits).
Some nice new motors about .... that Early Bays on Fuchs', The T3D Squareblack and the '59 Rotating Split Westy downstairs were all highlights for me.
Snaffled a few swapmeet deals with the Overseas traders. Not cheap but managed to choose some nice 'genuine' parts as opposed to repro bits that are nearly right.
Weather could have been warmer, but it could also have been wetter, so it was ok.
