Were some great cars and some shockers.. didnt take that many pics cos there wasnt that many good cars lol
Met Jimmy, Dan and Co.. wasnt impressed it was 10am and nobody was drunk or even drinking !!! Thats just not the Corsasport way 
Anyway here is link to pics... enjoy

Nearly all of the cars were utter crap. I've never seen such an array or flat paint, contaminated paint, poorly applied patchy metallics and pearls, unsanded filler, dents and ripples in my life.

yeah the quality of finish to most cars was awful... just doesnt seem like anyone has pride in their cars these days 
on the other hand there were a few cars that were near perfect

I thought that was mint too. It's livery and not paint - the entire car is covered in vinyl which is pretty impressive

Just got back from the show. glad im back now 
Met some great people- Wicked banter. Top guys. However the show didnt live up to my expectation and 80% of the cars were pretty poor to be fair. including some of the ones in the top 50 But suppose some of them just wernt my style.
However the EU-MANIA stand. 
Thought it would of been busier too. at times there seemed to be more models (if you can call them that) walking around.

You'll be told it's because you "don't understand" 
I totally agree with you.

Understanding something doesn't have anything to do with liking it.
As I said before... Love the car apart from the bonnet.
