Is anyone planning on going? they are looking for alternative engined vans to display - i might offer mine as a showcase of the way not to do it!

Despite confidently predicting I would have my van finished for vanfest 05 i dont think im gona make it in my van this year either

but i might make an effort if a few chaps off here are going.

Good chance to plug VWKD too.

I'll be there with the Bus and Durham Dubbers VW Club as we've booked a club plot....
We're having 2 weeks camping after Run To The Hills show and ending with Vanfest so should be good

Be great to meet some of you guys though, so get yourselves to along to our club plot for a brew Grin

yeah we went last year - the best bit was the huge car boot sale in the neighbouring field! so much crap to buy, so little time Grin

had a look round your van a few weeks ago actually........was hanging around trying to work out where you were at newark kit car show. your van was drawing quite a crowd!

i'm in the process of applying to display my van in the alternative engines section at vanfest, is there any official info on teh website people would like me to display near my nail of a van? otherwise i might just put some tearoff sheets with teh website address on my windscreen......

phil, do you have any business cards you want me to leave for interested folks?

no commission of course Grin

i owe you more beer than i care to mention for all the advice you've given me since i've been on here!

I should also be there with my van in the display, I have had one breif mail from the display coordinator saying yes and since then silence...

Assuming all goes to plan, I can also promote the forum, any preference how ?
