Title: NEC Classic Car Show
Post by: peteracs on October 08, 2012, 06:33:03 PM
Hi All

Could only find a simple reference to this show by Tony and not what is being proposed in terms of any cars showing there.

I had assumed there would be something on the LMC stand which I think has happened before, but never having been involved up to now, I am not sure.

So if someone can update us and if any help is required etc, that would be great.

Peter

Hi John

Sorry, mine is still in many bits and will be ready for next summer (maybe) at the current rate of progress.

My only free day is the Friday, but currently baulking at the extra cost of entry on Friday and the £10 parking charge.....

What is the deal about charging that much more for the first day?

Drive to Rugby (if you're comming from the South) and get the train.

Rugby parking is £4.50 and the return to Birmingham international is £7.50. You save the petrol from Rugby to the NEC and there is no waiting to get in or out of the car park.

Trains are every 10-15mins and take about 25mins

[and the £10 parking charge.....

Really?  On top of what I consider to be already expensive tickets?

Yep, that is what is says on the website, they even suggest car sharing because of it.
