MPH 06

I went last year to Birmingham. Was pretty good. I'd describe the show as a live version of Top Gear. Got to see 2 "pro stunt" drivers wreck a couple of Astra VXRs lol. I wanted to go again this year but it's right in the middle of my holiday. :(
 
Yeah I want last year too after I got free tickets. Went to the Earls Court show

The actual 30-40 minutes show is pretty good fun but in general the event was a little disappointing. However it's a good chance to see some very exotic cars that you wouldn't see every day

Strangely for me the highlight was actually the Monaro VXR!
 
Yer I went last year and im off this year aswell.

Went to earls court last time so going to give birmingham a whirl this time around.

In terms of the cars on display its nothing like the national motorshow that comes around every 2 years, but every car there is a supercar or something special in its own right.

The show itself lasted about an hour last time and was very good, just like a live top gear with stunts and stuff really.

Very good day out.
 
No tiff was there one year but the whole show revolved around Clarkson taking the **** out of 5th gear.

Its was originally advertised as being presented by Clarkson, May and Hammond but a quick check of the website and its now just showing as JC and JM.

Its a shame but it will still be good. Im sure the stig will put in an apearance like last time aswel :p
 
Oh sounds like it should be a good day then, never been to one before.

I ordered the tickets last night for the Sunday @ the NEC, looking forward to it now. :D
 
I went last year (or is it this year?) - still have plenty of picture from the earls-court show and am going again for the london show.
 
Went to the Birmingham show last year. The show itself was great, and some awesome machinery.

Wasn't too pleased to find my rear passenger window smashed in after the first night at the Travel Lodge though, having just driven 500 odd miles the day before to get to the show. Nevermind.
 
I went to Earls Court in 03, missed 04 and then went to NEC last year.

I actually found that the NEC show last year was lacking over the Earls Court one, seemed like only 2/3's of the cars and stands went to the NEC one. It was the first year I think where they did both venues, so I hope this year they realise that the NEC is just as popular.

I dont know if i will be going. I went to the Excel car show in london, That was really interesting. Will check out the dates for MPH 06 and see what i can do :confused:
 
Went to the Birmingham show.

Got free tickets and free food/wine etc. Show was pretty good and even the 3D effects worked.

Actual car stands weren't that great. Wasn't worth the drive from west wales for me though.

Or getting to the NEC and finding my new backbox had come off one of the hangers and melted a lovely big hole in the bumper :)
