What is the best time to try and be there for if not got a car on the stands. Will you be able to get in and park before 10am? First time I'm going to Ford Fair 😁 Only been to Classic Ford show before

I'm little bit peeved that mine still has a small dent and the front of the car needs a bit of TLC, literally have had no time to get either of them sorted :(

I also have 3 gash scrapes on rear offside corner just above reverse fog light caused by supermarket trolley rolled into it. As carpark is on a slope.

I've got a fairly deep bush scrape down the length of the passengers side. Also got some paint missing where someones caught the rear corner.

Most cars aren't perfect. If I get the time and weather to touch up the paint and wax the body to try and reduce the scrape I'll do it, if not it'll just be cleaned and as it is. It's still not going to be perfect, but I'm not paying to have it fixed when something else will just happen to it anyway.

I have a horrible scuff on my front bumper from someone turning in a car park (never caught up to them) took all the paint straight down to the white material.

Quick question, is it frowned upon to bring some parts with me to sell? I was thinking of displaying a list in the car window.

Thanks.

Don't see anything wrong in it myself.

I wouldn't see why it would be, if you're looking to get rid of some stuff then where better to than a Ford Fair? I have a couple of things I'm bringing down that I don't need that I'll give to people that need them. Saying that I have 4 alloys that I need to get rid of too lol.

First casualty.
Some poor beggar in a spotless Mk3 ZS had some chump in a Mk3.5 ST reverse into him at the Towcester Travelodge.
Nicely scraped up front bumper.
Nearly got another car in his rear quarter as he tried to park up to view the damage.
Poor beggar.

Yeah I'm about 1-1.5 miles back in queue on a43 south side, haven't even got passed camera yet. Been here 40mins and moved about a dozen car lengths.

They should keep letting us in until the queue is cleared. Never seen it this bad before. But then I'm slightly later as it said it was running an hour later this year. :(

we haven't been here for many years, so didn't expect it to be this bad.

We went up the right hand lane thinking everyone else was general admission but then saw others with club stand passes, sorry if we went past. We're up by one of the count down markers (2 lines) to turn off for Silverstone.

Again, sorry for going past.

Most don't put passes up till they're closer. I haven't yet. Both lanes are blocked now where I am.
