maido Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Where have you heard this mate? seen it on another forum and the person who runs another club stand contacted the organisers of the show, and thats how they doing it this year due to loads of complaints last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maido Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 From the organisers - "Unfortunately, due to complaints from clubs and attendees, for 2014 we have reviewed our policy regarding the age of cars displayed at the Classic Ford Show. The show is a celebration of classic Ford models circa 25 years and older, and as such, we are now unable to accept display stand bookings from clubs that represent Fords outside of these guidelines. Bookings from clubs that are clearly not classic models may be rejected. Clubs that have a mix of slightly newer cars may be placed on the periphery of the main displays. . The organisers of the Classic Ford Show retain the right to refuse entry to any unsuitable vehicles." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Paul Posted January 24, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted January 24, 2014 We should be ok as we have a mix and they stopped producing the Escort Cabriolet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 From what I have read if its a mixed club stand you should be OK, so people with mk6 cab can be next to a mk3 on the club stand. Mines 25 so no worries lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iansoutham Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I would double check this one if I were you guys. Steve over on Passionford has been in contact with Future Publishing, etc.... and after long, heated discussions, they are only relaxing the pre 1990 rules for the Sierra models as they finished in 1992 and all pretty much all Sierra models are now classed as classics. Originally, they were going to be very strict on the 1990 cutoff. So, technically, any MK5 onwards Escorts will be turned away. All according to the info he has been given about a week ago as the Passionford Event organiser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest George N Susie Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Hi everyone as stated other day I'm now a proud owner of a mk4 xr3i convertable :-) I've seen this post for car show is it something that your car needs to be fully restored to attend as she does need some work. I would really like to go it sounds awsome. Cheers Paul of harrogate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian71 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 You can go as a day visitor and pay on the gate,but you will not be able to put your cab on the stand without a club ticket which are all sold now. If you attend the show please visit us on the cab stand you will be made to feel welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
