National 4x4 show at Trentham Gardens, Staffs

Forum: 

Is anyone on here planning on visiting the National 4x4 & off-road show at trentham gardens in 2 weekends time (29 - 31st August)??

Im hoping to be there, not sure what day tho. Supposed to be the biggest 4x4 show in the country or something! Plus its got an off-road route with varying levels of difficulty, and having been to trentham gardens before there's some good off roading there!!

Yeah, i wouldnt mind meeting

Yeah, i wouldnt mind meeting up with a few folks. I can do any day that weekend if i go. If anyone doesn't kno about it or wants to know more look at www.national4x4show.com.

Still doesn't say anything about the off-road course tho, but i emailed them a while ago and was told you pay £5 i think it was every time you go round the course. You basically follow a set route i think but there are harder and almost impossible bits along the way if you want to do them!! They've also got various displays, a massive 1000bhp monster truck giving rides, plus an indoor exhibition with the robot wars robots! Admission is £7 per day for adults and £2.50 for kids.

Cool

Will mention something on the front page of the site to see what response there is about having a meet on the Sunday there. Friday everyone will be working who has jobs, Saturday some will be working (ie me), and Sunday is the day of rest so everyone will be sitting at home bored watching some crap old film on BBC 1 for the afternoon. Smile

Wouldn't mind taking my Sporty offroad there, tho have never taken it offroad before and the suspension does creak a little which I ignore and say "oh its meant to do that" when the passenger comments on it ;).
