Went to the donnington 4x4 show a couple of years ago and to be honest thought it was poo . Quite expensive entrance fee and not a lot to see when you got in Mostly catered for landies and took me 20 mins to see everything there (the hall is very small). Came away with a tin of cammo paint from Anchor supplies .Found nothing else of much interest .
Hope this dosn`t put too much of a downer on your planned trip ,If your going for a social meet it might be more interesting but I though it very poor value for money and would only consider going if I was local .

Well done Coco.
Mine was supposed to be in there last year, but it was left too late. I clean forgot this year.
Never mind - I'll be there (signing copies of TOR if you wish )
Nic-UK in a way is correct in that the Donnington show is small compared to the other shows that appear later in the year. The good points are that it is the first in the year and supported by a magazine that is not green ovalist (is that a word).
The show is also indoors, with ample near-by parking with a sit down cafateria on site.
I'll be there in my blue/yellow Streetly Motor Club coat - stop me and say hi - even better, buy me a coffee
I particularly want to catch up with the British Off Road championship (stand C157/C158 and renew my GLASS membership (C180) and of course my TOR subscription (B136/C181/C182)
There are quite a few other stands I intend to visit that should make it a worth while few hours.

Been to the show for the last 3 years and found it to be very informative if you bother to talk to people and get ideas. even Landys have to start some where! All the stand people are willing to talk about there product and how you can adapt it for your own use. Good day out!!
