The new copy of Audi Driver has a 26 page spread on the show. We got one lousy little photo in those 26 pages. I feel like boycotting the show next year. But I actually enjoy it. But I feel they treat us like poo. Even the rs4 Facebook club got in there.

This site definitely gets a rough deal there! I think we should book a table at the gala next year and show em how we role again (they may have forgotten about the last time)
previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.

Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

I cant understand why we get a raw deal like we do!-it’s not the quality of the cars as that’s always really high and we always have a real mix of them too. If we boycotted it I don’t think they would bat a eyelid and we would lose out as let face it we do all have a laugh and it’s a good day.maybe if Edd was there with one of he’s diagrams of how to have the cars we would have gotten more photos!lol

I've heard, and this is not my opinion, you will do well with them if you "make it rain" their way.

Yeah, many folk can't handle it here. Some owners believe folk with a sense of humour shouldn't be allowed to own Audi's and should all be prim and proper.

The ownership changed hands a year or two ago - I met the new owner of the mag at the event (he’d seen me filming and had seen one of my vids from a previous year). I’ve replied to his comment on YouTube to ask why only the one pic and crap stand position every year.

No no, definitely the right blue. Wouldn’t want it to look like a B5.

Fair enough lol. Nothing against the Nogaro club. They look great together and have done really well building a club up in such a short space of time. I could have picked any club from the middle of the show ground so don’t be offended or feel I’m being negative towards anyone other than the organisers.

The spot we had was super rubbish. Had to move the bins out the way before we could park!

To be fair, we were dead chuffed with the spot, but we didn’t do anything special for it.
I wouldn’t have been to worried about where we were though, we always look good wherever we go

To be fair that is one butt hurt response.

You say you are venting towards the organisers but bring edition noggy into it? Surely the whole point of the day is just to enjoy it? You guys do have a stigma attached to yourselves and when we bumped into you guys in wales you didn’t come across very well if I’m honest, maybe you need to shake the stigma first before blaming everyone else.

Here’s another b5, I bet you can count the amount of c5’s in Nogaro on one hand.
