Anyone going this year? It would be good to all meet up again and swap stories, progress etc. Me - I need to start buying some bling (mirrors, lights etc) to hopefully complete my build over the winter ready for the SVA man in the spring. Better to buy bling having seen it in the flesh rather than in a catalog I find - so I think I will be going.

I seem to remember that there is no track availability this year - does anyone know? If so - I guess there will be a lower attendance - hopefully all the accessory stands will still be there.

List here

Not sure yet? I would like to go, as I need some bits like interior mirror and I like to look around, but it is another day that I could be building!

Anybody know if Marlin will be there and what they will have on their stand?

As you say, it would be good to meet up again and share our latest stories...
I'd like to hear another BMW m20 engine running to see how it compares to my 'bag of nails'. One of my neighbours with a turbo charged mini (yes really!) reckons i've got a misfire, but im not sure as it is so long since the engine ran in the donor car.

I hope to be there as I need to see some complete examples as I can't match the manual to the kit.

Can't go I'm afraid. I will be going to Exeter show though in november. Trouble is I always go but have never seen a sportster there, other than those on Marlin stand. It would be nice just to see one or two there this year.

Looks like great weather for the show this weekend.

I'll be there on Sunday.

How about anyone there, we meet up at the Marlin Owners Club spot (tent, caravan, flag?) at high noon?
