It's been 4 years since I was at it. It's a good show with good cars at it whenever I was there.
Seen one of the stands blank a kid asking enthusiastic questions which turned my stomach a bit and I never really bothered going since. Can be a pain in the rear getting out of the car park if you hit it at the wrong time.

Might go next year, give it another go.

Cars are great standard usually but there are some serious stuck up gits at it too.

Heading into this myself too, really looking forward to it. Huge variety of motors last time I was there, hope it's still the same.

It'll be the last outing for me before the mk2 goes into storage so it'll be bittersweet for me I think!

Completely agree. If you don't want people near your car or asking you questions don't bring it to a car show. Or give out to people for bending over to look in engine bay when the bonnet is open. I swear some of them would tell you off if you so much as breathed near the car(also the same guys that if they saw a spit of damp or rain wouldn't bother going to car show).

I best not mention the make of car that I associate this with cos it may insult someone. :-o haha

We will have 50 or more cars at the Porsche Club Ireland stand tomorrow. All generations of cars will be present including some very rare models.

There will also be an area for kids and a BBQ with a large pig on a spit!

We are also launching a Porsche club for kids this summer.

If anyone wants to get a good view of some or all the models from history through to mechanicals please drop me a PM and I all make sure you or your kids get a proper view.
