No black cars? I'd have thought there would be plenty of cars in that colour around.

Is it VAG only on display? Or German cars in general?

I'm surprised only red and yellow cars confirmed. If the hosepipe ban over before the weekend I would throw my hat in the ring, albeit not a very existing car but could help with the display.

Guys, just trying to get final logistics agreed.

8am depart from browns barn old car park opposite city west entrance beside petrol station. Converge with cars coming down from north east.

Awaiting details from the guys over in the West for similar meet points and timings.

At this stage and to finalise plans we really need to know who is going and what you’re bringing.
Please add you name to the list below ASAP. Thanks.

BBQ planned etc

Rally the troops!!

Guys, here’s the location the guys at VAGE have reserved for Autostadt cars. Nice spot with room on the grass for the marquee and bbq. If needed we can use spaces in the rows in front of that red line.

Final bump.

Safe trip to all those making their way to and from tomorrow’s event. Weather is hard to call but it is Ireland and we all love a road trip.

Drop by our marquee and grab a burger cooked by our very own Michelin star or is it Michelin man chef Mr Ro Patrick.
