I will be driving down on the day for this show as I have other commitments :smile:

But highly recommend staying at the caravan site as plenty to do to make the most of the weekend for the price of around £260 for 3 nights .. but you have to book early :>)

I can't get anything now m8,best advice is to call the booking line or see what deals they are doing online. It's all changed on booking vans now and I can't get quantity discounts.

Hi All,

 

Just seen a post about if new members would be interested. i Joined last week and picked up my Escort Cab yesterday!

Now it needs a little TLC when i say a little i literally mean back box and a patch of welding, however starts and drives beautifully!

 

Now i need to speak to my mum/dad/partner as i expect they would all want to come.

Never been to a Ford event. Going on the road on the 22nd April (Insurance renewal date) so would tie in nicely.

 

Thanks

Jon.

Hi Ollie,

 

Fabulous! I've never done this before so sorry for the daft questions, do you show off your cars or park up in car park and look around? If you do show off id be interested to get some ideas and get some opinions on stuff on my own?

 

Thanks

Jon.

Hi jon

Simply Ford is a great show to attend as your 1st. Like ollie said, it's pay on the gate. Locate our stand and display your car with the rest of the club. Just make ollie aware your attending so a space is reserved on the club stand area.

It's my 3rd year with the club and everyone is helpful and friendly. You will be made very welcome.
