For this year only: In previous years I would attend a show / rally and then post a review about the show the following weekend. However this year I have been too busy, so for this year only, I will post reviews of all the shows / rallies I attended over the summer months throughout the winter.
The Stanford Hall VW show this year was held on Sunday 3rd May and is an annual one day event organised by the Leicestershire and Warkickshire VW owners club, and held in the grounds of Stanford Hall, which was built in the 1690's in the beautiful village of Stanford-on-Avon, near Lutterworth in Leicestershire, LE17 6DH. The grounds also has the River Avon gently flowing through the grounds, and provides a spectacular backdrop for a VW show. As Stanford Hall is only about 60 miles from my hometown, and as the weather forecast was promising I decided to drive up. I have been to this show over the past few years and there is always a good collection of top quality VW's of all varieties with plenty of trade stands and an auto jumble and all set in the beautiful grounds of Stanford Hall.

| Stanford Hall is at the centre of the show. |
| Simon's '61 single cab looked fantastic in the sunshine. |

That was the first of three reviews of the Stanford Hall Show. Next week there are plenty more busses, bugs, buggies with a few military VW's and even a Hebmuller, so be sure to come back next week.
