I'l vouch for that Rich, I was parked next to you at Billing (Sunday) when Dougie (nothing against him, he's a top top bloke) was asking you the questions etc.

Jamie, i did speak to you recently about us le turbo owners going to pvs and i remember you saying you would send a photographer around to take a few pics seeing as tv would be there????
Not a feature but a few pics of the cars together??
Wasnt that long ago we chatted about this!
If this cannot happen then we will be meeting up anyhow! Just seemed we both thought this could be good seeing as there are only a few of the limited editiond left and there are popular with the vauxhall guys!
My first le had a feature in the mags most wanted edition and got a good response from the many calibra owners!
Would be a shame to miss the few that are left if there together!

Actually covering, running and photographing the complete show takes up our entire weekend

Seeing as your a month (or two...) behind, ask for viewer photo email contributions, so it only takes you two days in the office to sort, then add a little caption under the photo of who sent it in...

Heya, well I'm certainly going to be going round with a snapper and will get photos of the cars and the club, that's more than fair enough. The only thing I wanted to put right was the prospect of a full photoshoot on the day, as as much as I'd love to do double page spreads on each club there, it just isn't possible.

I'm more than happy to get photos of the Calibras and the club, it's great to see a group of them together for once.
Consider yourselves lucky, there isn't even a club for Mk1 Carltons.

Photos of a Vauxhall show sent in by Vauxhall Enthusiasts??

Now steady on....

Very good idea in theory I agree, but in practice you tend to get a range of grainy iphone snaps that're way too small for print.

Do you guys know where you're pitching up yet on the Sunday?

Jamie, your right we didnt speak about a full shoot for the cars as it was agreed that it wouldnt be possible due to time ect, but we did talk about a few pics of the car together seeing as they would be at pvs at the same time.. guess theres a few crossed wires from us speaking about it..

I know I'm cutting and copying your post Jamie, but......

Request the last couple of years of photos of the VBOA Billing show on this site, you will see the die hards that keep this site running....

How many Vauxhalls from the Billing show pre 1990 have been featured in your magazine??

Old school tech feature <80??

I think so, and i'm sorry that's the case as it wasn't my aim. I will certainly come over and say hello with the photographer on Sunday. (if you'll let me off without a lynching

That I don't know as it isn't something we keep a tally of. What I do know is that we never rule a particular model out feature wise, and it's always genuinely exciting seeing what's been cooked up by dedicated owners each year.

Some sort of IT filter should be able to sort that out Advertise a minimum picture size in TV three or four months before the show, or state only camera pics of xxxx by xxxx are permitted, could help...

Do you guys know where you're pitching up yet on the Sunday?

Not until we rock up on the Sunday....

Some go for looks, some go for WOW, some go for a sleeper look.....

Come and chat, we won't bite...

Deal Look out for the lanky bloke staggering around with an A4 pad, hopefully with a Carlton and a Mk2 Astra in tow.
