Default Classics and Supercars at the Castle, Sherborne 17th July

Would anyone here in the South be up for a stand at 'Classics and Supercars at the Castle', near Sherbourne 17th July. It'd be an opportunity for those in the South to have a group stand. Information can be seen here;

https://classicsatthecastle.co.uk/ab...how-and-venue/

https://classicsatthecastle.files.wo...and-app…

It's £10 per car for either a 25ftx25ft plot or a 50x50 plot, with four 50x50 stands being the maximum per club. There is also a free car entry for one car per stand. It's quite a nice setting in the Dorset countryside and over 8000 people a year visit with an autojumble, trade stalls and over 1200 cars displaying.

Who in the South would be interested? I have to get the application sent off and pre-paid before 1st July so little bit of time. It is primarily a charity-focused event which donated over £20,000 to various local and national charities following the 2015 event. I'll be taking the 240 if anyone else is onboard?






I'd be interested in getting a classic stand up and running if anyone is interested?

Hopefully some will be interested likewise with other events. Seems this one is a ripper.

Update: for those who would be interested in attending, I have to get the stand finalised and paid by mid-June so the organisers have sufficient time to get the passes and documentation sent out. Seeing they had 1600+ cars, clubs and owners last year with F1/WRC/British Rally/hillclimb with a whole plethora of clubs and retired race drivers attend last year it makes sense to get it all pre-paid and so on first.

Who's up for it with the classic Volvos? £10 a head.

I did reply on one of the Facebook groups saying I would be very interested in bringing my 145 so hopefully I'm one of the three that you say are confirmed from Facebook!?

There will be plenty of space, I'll be sending off the payment for the stand this week and give them a ring to suggest the best way of others paying.

Ah yes - was that on display with the Three Counties Club? I have looked over your car at several events, never managed to have a chat. It's a lovely car I must say!

I'll get onto Sherborne about it, they've put up the price for this year however to £120 per 50x50ft stand instead of £60/70 it was for last year.

Do you think they have doubled price because it is over two days this year
15th-16th July .
