Which do you guys go to (if any) - just thought at this point it might be worth (with advance notice) perhaps arranging a meet for some of the guys - had some cracking meets when I was with ClubLupo. Any suggestions guys?

Best show I've done to date was E38 about 4 years ago - whole weekend, and it rocked - there were some Irish boys there too - remember a silver MKIV golf all decked out with a TV in boot and a MASSIVE sound system - me and bro in law collapsed on grass behind it, watching a movie after too many gold tequilla's!! Come on fellas, any suggestions?

Ok sounds promising so far...E38 sounds like it might be a goer...anyone else? Would be good to see a few 2k's sprouting up on the 'scene'.

Yeah I went to E38 last year, might go again this year, though it was the same as VW Action (I think) last year so I may be going to that instead. Highlight of E38 for me was some random taking a photo of my stickered back window. When i was sat in the back having lunch. In the car park. Lol :)

Ultimate Dubs in Telford - Indoor show, crappy lighting, but ok (Been on the indoor stand for Club Lupo :D)
VW Festival at Harewood House, Leeds - great venue, but weather has been hit and miss for the last 2 or 3 years.
Spring Festival at Santapod.
E38 - Never been, hate stuff that everyone insists that you must attend or you're a loser. :roll:

I perfer meets, drives or camping, I'm admin on a local dubs forum (http://www.nordubs.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) we meet up for drives in the Lakes, Dales and even the highlands, good craic and normally stop for some food. I haven't taken the Caddy yet though!

Sounds like there are plenty of good suggestions. Perhaps nearer to each event we could do a sticky and a head count -maybe a couple of months prior to it happening - I'm well up for weekend events that involve camping, fry ups and beer!
