Was supposed to go to Terenure this year but it seems I have signed up to do the Ring of Kerry on a BICYCLE that weekend:rolleyes:
I hope I don't get kicked out of the Motoring section for mentioning the B word

bookerboy

Would'ent miss this one for any reason.
Still the highlight of the year for me.

RobAMerc

dammit
That means I'll be missing the Ring of Kerry cycle and the Terenure show. Still though, I'll be at The Festival of Speed instead !:D:D

I was at that show a few years ago with my camera, there was a gorgeous E-Type there but the owner had erected his own private tape 'fence' around just his car which was going to completely spoil the photo so I didn't bother taking one even though it was a superb specimen. At the same show there was Ferraris and Lamborghinis sitting there in the field for all see and no private fence around them.

I think anybody going to a vintage car show understands the 'don't touch' rule, maybe the Jag & Daimler club could remind it's members of this fact.

Ring of Kerry on a Bike sounds better than Terenure any day !

Wishful thinking, I'm afraid
as a lot of board members on here would agree, no doubt.

Most of the people have tremendous respect for the cars on display, but unfortunately there is always that very small percentage of people acting completely ignorant. Also children are sometimes let run wild without supervision, or worse, with their parents looking on and not saying a word when their child is jumping up and down on an unmarked leather interior...

I've suffered many small scuff damages on the various cars I had on display over the years (and not just in Ireland, this is a 'universal issue' ), but I guess it's something to be expected, up to a certain degree.

But I did have instances where people stole switch gear and trim off my cars, that really p###d me off (so that's prompted me to always lock the car when I go for a wander myself!! ). So in a way i can understand the Jag owner...)

Hope to be there, got my form in the post a few weeks ago. Fingers crossed for decent weather!

I saw some guy open the drivers door and put his child into one of those big yank cars that were parked on a hill. The first thing the child did was to release the handbrake :eek:. car rolled back a bit but stopped because it was in gear. Close one! thats why they say lock your car when you are not near it!
Couple of young wans sitting on that nice green beetle with the trailer too!

B word is fine with me but only if it's followed by M and X otherwise you're a cyclist and that's the C word !!!!

Is boards classics section putting together a group display?

I should have my Marina by then and (although it will be not be perfect.......or near it) I'd happy put it on display for the novelty factor if someone is organising things

Its funny you should mention this.
That E-Type belongs to a friend of mine who, like myself, has been at the hands of gougers at shows such as Terenure. Another friend of mine had the door buttons stolen from his car one year!

Although it is a great show, one I never miss, I would be choosey about what car I bring to it.

I have attached a pic of the E-Type along with the tape around it!

I can't remember if it was that actual E-Type but on the occasion I was referring to (based on my photo library it looks like it was 2004) there was only a couple of inches between the car and the tape.

Is there any exact rules/regulations that dictate what cars can enter ?

Anything goes i think

Cheers a mate of mine is looking at entering a stand for a valeting/detailing company that he owns.

E30

If you are a member of a club or group please get your entry form in by next Monday, June 20th and make sure you include the club name. Cars generally have to be over 25 years old but they will take 'one make clubs' such as MR2's, FTO's, MX5's etc once they have more than 5 cars.

Entries can be taken on the day until around noon (depending on how the field fills up) but please bring a completed form with you to reduce the queues.

Extra forms can be downloaded on www.irishjagclub.ie

Big Nasty

I'm booked and paid for this!

I'm sure there'll be plenty of boardsies there but most likely all with their own respective clubs. I already suggested in another thread that we all meet up at a certain point and time, put faces to the names and take a walk around together to get a look at each others cars.

In relation to scuffs, etc at shows it can happen anywhere. Things that I've seen so far are kids put into cars, kids dripping ice cream on upholstery, sunglasses stolen from car, dust caps stolen and finally a car being keyed!:mad:

As it happens none of the above happened in Terenure!

Magnum

I'll be there again this year and hopefully I won't have to go home on the train this year!!!!

bookerboy

Pray for some decent weather guys.I believe Mosney wash a washout.

iMac Hunt

Looking forward to this, went for the first time last year and was really impressed. Check out some photos I took on the day http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.422564309200.180413.604299200&l=2846607bb9

I've stickied this thread until after the show!

Thinkingaboutit

I posted off a cheque for the car. I dearly hope it does not rain.

jurahnimoh

What are the trade stands like at it?

manta mad

got the entry number today in the post & the show layout !

looks like its gonna be a good show !

Thinkingaboutit

Someone posted the application on me when I could have put the thing through the letterbox of the address in person. Hope I get my number. It was posted a few days before the 20th. I sorted the tail lights, a small breakage and one not working, so the 16/60 should be okay.

E30

Some small changes on the latest map I have - including Total Opel.
Entries are good and fingers crossed the weather stays fine for the weekend!

abdub

Just need to get "Jenson" on the map changed to the correct "Jensen" - should I mention the "Austin Martin" plate from a few years ago and why mar an otherwise 100% perfect show.

manta mad

how many bordsies have their car booked in ?

I'll be there with my blue/green Volvo 1800ES - freshly resprayed, but sans new exhaust and brake lines - didn't make it in time for the show. In the 'not club affiliated corner'.

The exhibitor entrance is on Fortfield road - drive down the Templeogue road out of town, past the main show entrance, and take the next right. Just do like everyone else does and follow the old yoke in front.

I've suggested a meeting point twice already and nobody answered it. I'll be at the stand with the American Muscle Cars at the top of Row D just opposite the pedestrian entrance (see map above). As it's central it would be a good meet up point. I'm 6ft tall, big and bald so you can't miss me but if in doubt ask for big John / MCMLXXV and the lads will point me out.

I suggest 1pm as a good time to meet at our stand as it will give plenty of time for everyone to be in and settled, then we can take a walk around together and get a look at each others cars and maybe even take a group photo.

Thank this post if you'll be there (be you exhibitor or spectator) so I know whether to hang around waiting on ya or not!

manta mad

sound !!!
met ya at 1pm :cool:

ohh ill be the rough looking fella from the country !

exador

i will be there in the morning only

Thinkingaboutit

Mine is booked it, maroon Wolseley 16/60. What's the opening time?

mini 1275 gt

Right back at ya Bookerboy- Can't wait. The Jags are excellent.

Was admiring the Golf Neil, didn't spot you though.

Also saw a few other boards cars there, Corky's 'Tina and MCM's Trans Am. It was a good show today, too many food stalls though and not enough Autojumble

corktina

There was 6 or so of the Motors regulars wandering around together, I was wearing my Urban Per4mance shirt if anybody spotted me, one of the lads was wearing a cowboy hat, I'll spare him the shame of posting a pic

alastair

Apologies for the no-show today. Typically today's the day that the starter decided to die. It's been sickly the past couple of weeks, and I'd already a replacement ordered, but that's not much use when you've the picnic basket loaded and a tow start just isn't working out.

Blue850

Great show today, needs to be on 2 days.
first car I saw was an 850 identical to mine and then I got a load of old Motoring Life magazines in the autojumble:D




Link to my photos from today, about 10% of what was there!

Met Bigus, Corktina and Okistag - I'm sure there was plenty more there but that's the way she goes.

Here's a few pics:
