Hi

A little premature, but I have applied for a 4 car stand at this show in 2025 following on from this years attendance.

My main reason for posting now is to say I thought having the Y10 worked well this year and was hoping to expand on having some 80s/90s Lancia’s on our stand as well as the Betas.

We will know come December if/what we have. After contacting the Dedra/Thema consortium my target is to have a joint stand with them, 2 Beta and 2 Dedra/Thema if we get the stand space. I approached Kevin with the black HPE who said he was was interested in having the car on the stand, so if anyone else is interested in having their car on the stand, please contact me. I know it is way off in the future, but better that than it being just 2 weeks to go…..

Thanks

Peter

Hi All

Just had confirmation of an offer for the stand which will house 4 cars. Kevin has offered his black HPE which is great, so if anyone fancies having their car on the stand (I am not looking for pristine cars, unlike the November show) please get in touch.

As mentioned above I have asked the Thema/Dedra Consortium to also supply 2 cars.

Lastly if anyone can spare the time to help man the stand on any of the days that would also be appreciated, as usual exhibitor wristbands would be provided.

Thanks in advance

This is a reminder that I am still looking for an offer of a car and also for anyone who is happy to help out on the stand on one or more of the days.

You are provided with exhibitor wristband, so free access to the show and would have an opportunity to go around the show as well.

Ideally would like at least two folk per day.

Please get in touch if you can help as I would like to put to bed the stand rota and what cars we are showing.

Thanks

Hi Peter,

I can help out over the weekend. I can provide a car too, but in the name of fairness - only if you are really stuck.

For people thinking of showing their Beta at the Restoration Show - I found it a really enjoyable experience showing my coupe at the 2024 show, nice to get the opportunity to look over the car under the lights in the NEC and get a good coat of wax on the paintwork and attend to a few minor jobs.

If there is a preferred hotel can you let us know Peter? I suspect I'll be staying overnight on the Friday and Saturday. No point heading back North only to head South on the Sunday! I was thinking of a Premier Inn in Coventry/Warwick/Leamington Spa as I assume the ones at the NEC are already fully booked and very expensive...

Hi Guy

I have booked at the same hotel I stayed at in November. Only staying the Thursday evening. Depends what you are after, the hotel is called Grimscote Manor Hotel at Coleshill and I booked via booking.com. The hotel is a bit Fawlty Towers, but the staff were really pleasant and the breakfast is included and price is pretty cheap. Not as nice as Premier Inn, but given how long you stay in the room, I was happy with it. You can also book evening meal.
