I went last year - what a load of crap and a complete waste of cash. You'll have more fun visiting your local Daewoo showroom.

Sound like the Motorshow is not worth a visit then, may try Balado instead (just looking for an excuse to take the Indy for a run)
Maybe we could make our own display of kit cars
Cheers

Not meaning to put you off Scott. Just my opinion, as I was sorely disappointed last year.
Knockhill is just not very a good exhibition venue. Very cramped, filthy and poor facilities.
I can't remember seeing one single 'interesting' car there last year.
The main attraction seemed to be a guy on track doing donut after donut after donut after donut (zzzzzzZZZZZ) in a TVR / Legend. Got very boring
after the first dozen or so donuts.

I know what you mean about Terry Grant, once you've seen him once, it does become a bit boring (and believe me when I say, I've seen his
shows too many times already) Now Russ Swift on the other hand is brilliant to watch over and over, pity he isn't there.
Just thought it might be a good venue for a little meeting of some local builders, but the steam show is cheaper (and a little closer for me)
Cheers
