Hi

Anyone want to go? Manningtree car show near Colchester.

I have been to watch for several years. We used to display our Robot Wars robots there. That has stopped now, so last year I took my XR3.

It is very popular with over 400 vehicles last year of all types. Plus a beer tent, food tent, and a few stalls, autojumble etc.

Here is some video of last year:

And some video of a few years ago when we did the robots:

Shame Lela won't be ready in time, she would have been perfect for this. If anyone else is going I'll bring HB along though, just to make your cars look even better lol

Plenty for the kids to do too, as you'll see in the video link. They have little quad bikes, radio controlled cars, various stalls, and last year even had some owls on display. My kids love this show.
