Can I ask a couple of questions? Where do we buy tickets for this and how much are they? And more importantly, my RS4 is pretty bog standard so will that be ok? All i've done is tint the windows! I don't want to show up and spoil a good stand with a standard RS4 if yours are all modded etc.

Cheers

I'm trying to speak to Wings & Wheels organisers about the tickets, but the guy I need to speak to was out on Friday and haven't been able to get through to him yet today. Will update with definite details once I've spoken to him.

As I understand it, we'll need to buy tickets in advance over the phone, and we'll get a discounted rate (£15 vs full price at £22, £5 for kids 5-15yrs, but don't quote me). They'll post us tickets and a pass to put in the car to get us access onto the show area.

RE the lack of mods; don't be absurd, of course you're welcome! We're not that kind of forum, and besides lots of people prefer to see a standard car over a modified one. Good to have a variety. :thumbs:

Alright guys, managed to speak to the relevant organiser today, chap called Ed.

Our stand is confirmed, and he's asked for us to call and pay for tickets over the phone by early next week, so he has enough time to post tickets and stand passes. Paid for mine.

Please call Ed on 01483 542221, and let him know you're on the RS246 stand on Saturday.

Our prices are £15/adult and £5 for 5-15yrs, plus £2.50 postage.

We've still got a few days to round up a few more cars if anyone else is interested? Good excuse for a meetup!

Good job Faisal. So is it £15 per car or per person in the car? I want to take a few people with me.

No worries

That's per person - still cheaper than regular admission though.

I'll be getting my tickets today or tomorrow, just waiting on a friend to see if he can make it. Are we down to 7 of us now then?

Bit of a disaster today! Went down to KDS in Gillingham to book mine in for detailing and they can't book me in until September. Plus on the way I managed to pick up a puncture, screw right through my right rear, which damaged the tyre as I drove on it :thumbsdown:

Luckily Lepsons is in the same yard and I ordered a replacement which I'm picking up tomorrow, but that's £140 Down the drain. Tyre had only done about 4K miles. Oh well. :boohoo:

On the plus side I also booked in with Lepsons to get my wheels refurbished, which will be done in time for the wings and wheels stand. :mrgreen:

Nice one guys!

Sorry to hear about the trashed tyre MrHilario ☹️

KDS must be quiet though, only booked till September? The couple of times I've called them, they had a 2 to 3 month wait!

Also sorry to hear about the RS5 sale Noyjatat!

If anyone's yet to get their tickets sorted, I'd call up ASAP.
