    I think that a lot of forums have “ dried up” as the cars have become superseded with the newer models.
    I was so disappointed at the VBOA show at Sywell last year, once the main event when it was at Billing, plenty of European cars attending, you could do a couple of hours around the trade stands, now it’s half an hour and you’ve covered the whole event.
    Really sad to see tbh.


    Have consideration for the deaf, if you're gunna fart, make it smell !

    that is what happens with the police clamping down on car meets, now the big events aren't what they used to be and the only real big shows that have a decent turn up are classic shows and even those are getting less and less attendees... I don't even bother going to them anymore.

    Also with the start up of Facebook groups a few years ago the Forums started to decline.

    The 9 years i had my Vec i was a Full member but since i sold it in 2018 i have been a regular member, i would imagine a lot of ex-owners have done the same which is a big loss in revenue.
