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.
This weeks blog entry is the first instalment about the annual Chiltern Hills Vintage Vehicle Rally which is a one day show for classic and vintage vehicles (including old Volkswagen camper vans) and is organised by the Game Club to help raise money for local charitable causes. The rally is a well established event which allows owners of classic and vintage vehicles to gather together in the glorious Buckinghamshire countryside. This event was actually their 23rd anniversary, and took place on 21st May. The new venue is at Weedon Park, Weedon Hill near Aylesbury and is a fantastic location for this great one day show which attracts well over 1000 vehicles of all descriptions and the Game Club had also organised: Children's rides / slides, a fun dog show, trade stands, an auto jumble, a beer tent, speciality teas, a pig roast, burgers and ice cream stands. I have been attendending this event for over 10 years and it's one show that I really enjoy due to the huge diversity of the vehicles.

Aylesbury VW Owners had a club stand and this was a small part of it. |

Lovely low early 1940's Chevrolet 3100 Thriftmaster. |

| Cadillac Coupe de Ville in pink. |
 |
| Chevrolet Impala looked tough. |
 |
| Mk1 Ford Lotus Cortina was immaculate. |
 |
Diversity is everything, where else could you see a 1960's Jag, a Land Rover and a mini in the same line up. |
 |
| Yes please... Mk2 Ford Cortina 1600E. |

It's on the road and being driven and that's all that matters. |

Such a beautiful car, why can't they make cars like this anymore? |
 |
The interior would be a pleasure to look at whilst cruising down the road. |

Two tone paint on this '55 Chevy make it look so tough. |
 |
To go with the tough looks you need a big motor, and this has it! |

Another tough '55. I did like the huge rear wheels and tyres tucked under the stock bodywork. |
 |
| Plenty of bling on this huge motor. |
So that was part 1 of 3 all about the Chiltern Hills Classic Car show. Next week will be part 2 where you'll be able to see more American muscle cars, military vehicles and some awesome VW's, so be sure to come back next week.
