Retro Rides Gathering 16th Aug. 2009!
After the hugely successful 2008 event Retro Rides Gathering is returning in 2009, bigger, better and more action packed. Sunday 16th August will see the Retro Rides Gathering head to the Haynes Motor Museum, Sparkford, Yeovil, Somerset. As in previous years the show will have the finest Retro machinery representing the wide range of vehicles in the retro scene from hot rods and customs through to circuit racers and stock dailys. In addition to the fantastic line up of cars there will be traders, show prizes, cars from the museum offering rides and for 2009 the Retro Rides Gathering has RWYB sprint track action on the Sparkford circuit. Cost of entry is £15 per car, so fill up with as many people as you can fit and make a great day out. Booking an advanced entry pass through the website will also get you one free pass to the museum. For full details of the show head to www.retroridesgathering.com Club displays are very welcome, for more info head to the website.

I'm tempted but depends on how many miles I have left on the classic policy and what clubs are going (V3m, turbobricks etc)

right, looks like the 740 is going (which means I need to wash it on friday) so if you see it there, say hi!

Quite a few from the volvo 300 mania site are going. I'm going but I think the 740 will be parked in the general car park area for this show. I dont think Turbobricks has anyone going.
