Hi guys, i was wondering if there was going to be a club stand at E38 this year?
OR
Is there going to be a general attendance from the forum at the show?
Would be good to put some faces to the names from here.
I travel down from glasgow with a few V'dubbers from the area and in my eyes is on of the best shows of the year. Nice and relaxed and plenty of beer.
Just my 2 pence worth

am hoping to go but but don't know much about the club's stand etc
-
Doesn't seem to be much interest in this event on here?
Is it because it doesn't feature many Mk5's? :confused:

Im sure once we get Inters outta the way it will attract some more attention! :happy2:

e38 is a massive show, last year i was at both, i would be this year but unable to go inters due to a holiday. For me e38 was maybe 5 times better show! the only thing it lacks is a strip
-
Oi Mr Jetta, PICS! :party:
-
Had a look at the official site and I thought it looked a bit low key :confused:
Lots of tasty MkII's though :love: Nice and handy too at Overstone Park. :happy2:
-
Noone cares because its months away! There are many shows to attend before e38, patience my friends! :P
I've been going since it started, but I have no excuse as its only down the road for me. Last year there was quite a few MK5s, and I'm sure they'll be even more this year! In 2003 there were no MK5s, and hardly any MK4s in attendance. Most dubbers don't buy a new car then spend thousands on it, they wait for them to come down in price first! :smiley:

:angry015:
I know when the MK5 was released, thank you very much. Why do you think I said there were no MK5s?
I don't know why I bother with this forum, I try and help people and they just act like kids.

Blimey Tom, thought you'd have realised by now that this forum is shall we say, a bit light hearted most of the time? If there is an oppurtunity for a laff most on here will take it so please don't take offence. :wink: :happy2:
-
If theres a large forum turnout then I'll come along! :happy2:
-
Ok who is going along. Think its almost 400 miles for me to get there so come on guys lets get a big crowd going from here! What do you think?

-
i'm doing the whole event, going to nip across to vw action at santa pod on one of the days too

Hey guys, us BIALI Boyz are thinking of getting a large joint area for 4 forums and that you might like to be one of them - Sort of like a big square with each forum having a square quarter.
Just an idea at this stage. What do you think?
-
I think thats a good shout Red Leader! :happy2:
The Biali crowd seemed a good bunch! :happy2: Apart from the dodgy old fella! :jumping:

I personally would rather have our own separate stand, as your bunch of bodgers do all that advertising stuff for other companies, and i wouldn't want to help boost their income without some amazing deals for our forum members. :wink:
Just my personal opinion Robin and nothing against you. :happy2:
-
''Your bunch of bodgers'' :grin: :signLOL:

....No problem. An interesting viewpoint though. BIALI doesn't exist for any commercial or trade-off reasons. :smiley:
Btw, the idea was to book a block and for the forums to be neighbours but each keeping their own identity, but it's only an idea and it's up to you guys who run this forum.

i have seen a mk v golf today that was a 03 plate-thought they didn't come out till 04

....Might have been a private plate. For example, if I transferred my 'VW05 RED' plate to a new R20T in 2011.
-
Robin, sounds not a bad idea. To tell the truth im just looking forward to the show and will go with the flow mate.
I think the main objective is to get a real good turn out for the MK5GTI forum wheather grouped with other forums or stand aloan.
Just my thoughts lads.

As Robin says, it is possible. This is my last baby and the plate was previously on a Mk5 GT TDi and before that a Mk4 R32 :wink:
It would be on my o6 Candy right now if it were not for a dangerous liaison with an Alfa Romeo :ashamed:

Yes, I'm just going with the flow too. I emphasise that the idea put forward is only a suggestion that several forums group themselves together physically as neighbours at this show but each maintains its own independent identity and area.
Afterall, many of us belong to more than one car forum and/or have friends on other forums - A show is always an opportunity to socialise and meet new people as well as those we already know, and to share our enthusiasm. I don't know about others on this site but I'm not into rivalry between forums like some puerile football team supporter.
For TC and anyone else who views BIALI as existing to advertise motorsport companies, please read our home page. Our affiliates are merely motorsport companies run by other genuine enthusiasts who also happen to be longstanding friends. Our BIALI image is such that we need to redirect people who come to us thinking we actually do something! - The whole thing is a huge joke and spoof. Besides, the BIALI stand may not be displaying any of its affiliates banners etc at Edition 38 - We haven't decided yet.
Anyway the bottom line is that it's entirely up to this forum how it wishes to display itself at Edition 38. If us BIALI boyz decide to go I'll be with them; If not, I'll be looking for a space on this forum's or on another stand; If there's no stand places for me anywhere I won't bother attending.
I'm just submitting a suggestion, no more and no less, and with no other motives - The rest is up to you guys.

Apparently there's no pre-booking of either club stands or tickets - Just pay on the gate.

....Circling the Volks Wagens, even.
Looks like the event is more of a Beer 'n Dub festival in a field than anything else.
-
it's 'rootsy' granted, but still a top show :grin:
(when it doesnt rain :grin:)

I've been there and done all that and now prefer my comforts. Most of you will doubtless feel the same when you reach my age.

I've blagged a place on a trade stand on Sunday, but I will be spending most of my time on AutoJumble as my mate and I have got so much old car stuff to sell.
No camping for me, I live a few miles away!
-
I gong to this on the saturday as far as im aware! Im quite exited! What goes on there on the saturday night?
Mitch
-
there on sunday, gonna make use of the rwyb at vw action on the saturday
-
Anyone attending our club stand? :popcornsoda:
-
Is there a list? We like lists :grin:
I'm still heading up on the Friday
-
Anyone attending our club stand? :popcornsoda:
You can't book a club stand space so we haven't really organised anything.
Like Wigit I will be at VW Action on the Saturday and ED38 on the Sunday :happy2:
-
Sunday is the best day at E38. really fills up with top class cars. As for club stands, there seems to be space set aside for the guys from DC09. Not sure how that happened. Would have been good to get all the MKV's together in one area.
Will be there both days, but thought about heading to VW Action on the saturday.
Iain
-
Yeah across to the pod on saturday is a must
-
Does anyone fancy meeting before the show and entering together?
-
Would maybe be up for that dan. All those nice MKV's coming into together would look good.

"Right had a load of calls about club displays so this is the crack!
There is no need to pre book! Just turn up on the day and tell the gate you want club parking,
it's that simple, but arrive early and together if possible to make sure you get space.
Hold tight :-) "

Tempting, although I have a standard GTI with curbed alloys (previous owner!!!!!!)

If there isn't an official club stand and you want (limited) spaces on the the main pitch, let me know - you are more than welcome to join us on the TW stand! Club banners/stickers and merchandise always welcome :)
