Title: GTI Festival Golfgti.co.uk Stand
Post by: tinman on 19 April 2005, 11:19
Right, seeing as theres a prize up for the best stand at Festival - we need a plan of action.

All cars on the stand need to be washed and vacuumed the day before. You must have something to get rid of bugs on the front of the car when you arrive as well.

I could get obsessive at this point and say we ought to order them by Mk and age ;-)

I like teh idea on parking them in Mk's order I think stands look good and orginised like that.
Do they give a judging time? As some will want to go on teh stip, don't want the look being messed up!

Really need 89 in on this thread as I think all 15 spaces are gone. and there is no way I'm going in the car park as my place is booked on the stand.

The car hasn't moved for 6 months and the split rims have been outside all winter, so it needed a lot of work, metel polish!
Someone has pinched my garged for his caddy and mk1, but mk1 shell went out on the front today so I am claiming my garage back!
