This weeks blog review is the first of four reviews all the Stanford Hall VW show which this year was held on Sunday 3rd May. This is an annual one day event organised by the Leicestershire and Warkickshire VW owners club. The show is 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 manicured lawns of the hall 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 good I decided to drive up. I have been to this show quite a few times over the 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. This show is seen by many as one of those 'not to miss' shows and it always gets busy there. The blog continues as I wander around the show.

| I don't know what it is, but I loved that what looks to be a home made camper in the middle. |
| This lovely Renault Dauphine looked amazing. The aggressive stance, the single colour choice and custom wheels made this little Renault stand out. |
| How clean and straight is this? That motor doesn't look stock to me. |
| The Karmann Ghia club display. |
| You've got to love a Trekker. |
| Gorgeous Bug. |
| I do like a go anywhere, off road Beetle. |
| I'm not sure if this cycle was a home made creation or not, but I did like it.. very much. |
| I loved the space ship inspired side car and the matching plate under the crossbar. |
So that was part three of four all about the Stanford Hall VW Show. Next week will be the final instalment where you'll be able to see plenty more cool VW's including a hot rod inspired beetle so be sure to come back next week.
