    There's about 3 different dates flying around so I wouldn't worry about it :D

    Went over to this around 2:30 with my son......very few cars there. €7 entrance fee for viewing was extortionate considering the amount of vehicles on display.:mad:

    €7 to look at a few cars for sale sounds a but much. Was there anything worth considering?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,924 ✭✭✭Nforce


    Tbh ......I didn't stay around long enough.

    I went as well - 7 quid in to view was extortionate. I didn't pay it. Best comment I heard was from some fella who asked where did the crowd organizing this thing come from - coming down here thinking we're a bunch of eegits...

    Regardless of the number of cars, or the quality, the viewing charge is absurd. There was nothing offered for the fee. For example, at a car auction there normally a fee but with that you get your catalogue and bidders card.
