what is this event like and would an externally standard series 3 be welcome?

It's a good one, mainly tractors but with several clusters of trucks, cars, commercials, stationry engines and of course a section for Land Rovers too. I think anything pre Defender would be welcome and not look out of place at all.

LRCC are just a subset of the Land Rover section at this show.

One thing to bear in mind is we can't have any kind of tent on the showground - but there is a camping area on site and entrants get a free pass for that of course.

See you there maybe?

EDIT- Patrick beat me to the reply

Hi Simon,

It's quite an interesting show - primarily hundreds (a thousand or so ) tractors from mini crawlers to tractor-pulling twin engine jobbies!

There are usually also about 50 or so classic cars and 30+ or so Land Rovers.

Lots of stalls from country foods (got to try the beaver pie ), wines etc., country/farmer's clothing, crafty stalls, to stalls selling tractor/farming parts, new and used. Plus an interseting autojumb

You could spend a full day just going round the show and still not see everything.
It's well worth going - it's free for exhibitors (though if we have a club stand we have to pay hence me suggesting individual entries).

No problem with your S3 - nobody judges your vehicle, unless you want them to

The only issue is they don't like tents/caravans on the show area.
Some have got away with it in previous years, but there have been rumblings for the last couple of years to make tents/caravans camp in the camping area.
Fine if you're living in the back of your '109" camper', but don't count on being able to put a frame tent up.
Then again, you should have your awning frame on by then, shouldn't you

Cheers,
Robin.

yes hope to have awning ready by then the extra room will be useful otherwise it's the old maggot that is a classic so may be able to sneak in LOL
