Latest update from the organisers

Quote:
One of the best modified cars in the world added to the line up
The ink is still drying on this one, so its confirmed, but we can't believe its happening. Retro Rides Show 2007 will play host to Mattias Vocks' 600bhp world beating custom Volvo Amazon Estate.

The car won last years Vallakra show in Sweden and was then sent to SEMA in the USA by Volvo themselves. It is one of the finest modified cars in the world right now, and it will be at the Retro Rides Show

Go here to see a picture :
http://retrorides.proboards86.com/index.cgi?board=rr07&action=display&thread=1177922153

Whats more Mattias is coming across from Sweden with two of his friends, one with an incredible Audi S1 Replica and the other with an amazing Escort Mk1, with 500+bhp Volvo engine. Make sure you get to the show for your only chance to see these cars in the UK.



Used Car Roadshow
We're pleased to announce that the Used Car Roadshow will be filming at the Retro Rides Show this year. They will be there all day Saturday so keep you eyes open.



Limited tickets.. Make sure you grab yours
It is probably worth making sure you get your weekend tickets sooner rather than later as they are limited to 2,500. Sales have been so strong that we would reccomend you and any clubs you represent to avoid any dissapointment and call : 01455 842 931 (option 1)



Style and Attitude Area
We are still looking for more cars for the Style and Attitude area. Send a picture and any relvant details of your car to david@retro-rides.com, we are looking to have a good mix of cars in the line up.
