            Several thefts have taken place at Donington...different shows....

            I am afraid the the RS OC Show does attract the wrong clients who are only there for thieving....

            All the other people are nice...obviously...

              tbh it aint a bad price, its a massive show at a location that costs thousands to hire, you got most of the best RS cars in the country on show not only in concours but on group stands. Track action and loads of traders. Good day out imo, don't think you would get all that for much less anywhere else.

                I'll stick with my first opinion!I can get twelve litres of strongbow for less than that!!!!!.Probably get more through the gates if it was a tenner.

                  I go for the local shows these days, and ones like the Oulton Park Gold Cup (Track action and static diplays) where they allow exhibiting car and driver in for free instead of £21 on the gate

                      dont agree with this ches there is a lot of collectors that never take cars to shows and my experiance with the rs owners club its full of plastic new cars which i have no interest i at all the last rs show i went to there was 4 old cars and the rest was nearly new stuff

                        Oh narrow minds

                        The RS Owners Club caters for ALL RS Cars not just our old knackers!!!

                        This event costs tens of thousands to put on. Advance tickets are always a lot cheaper so really those who leave it to pay on the gate should have maybe ordered in advance??

                        Ford fair was £16 in advance, Classic ford is just as bad and Trax is also expensive.

                            The thing is, if the venues charge a lot of money they can out price themselves.

                            If the RSOC did not have so many cars and members then the shows could not be afforded for the members/public to see. I am not a member of the RSOC as my car is a shed and unroadworthy so I have not joined.

                            I do enjoy going to Coombe and and do not mind paying the Swindon RSOC an entrance fee because they have gone to arrange a very good show for Ford weirdos and anoraks !!

                            At Combe there is the full range of Ford's some I would not bother to walk over and look because they do not interest me. I do though realise that to the owners the cars are their babies. So the last time I only took the **** out of one Puma owner! But hay their a bunch of Ford enthusiasts and without them and the fees they pay the RSOC might fade away.

                            As we all know the Escorts are old and most have been scrapped as they are FORDS; Dagenham dustbins and are looked down by ****s driving Bristols around Castle Combe acting like complete upper class knobs. Just let that out then!! So the point is every club needs new blood.
