I'd planned to be at Volksworld show to give ya'll some firsthand coverage, but life conspired against me and I just had to spend Sunday evening and this morning trawling websites and Flickr for photos from the event.
As usual we headed straight to Flickr this morning to see who had uploaded what, there are enough galleries to cover most of the show, although there isn't one big gallery that has collected most of the vehicles there, so you'll have to just go through a few peoples links:
Tyzer Tiger's Set (18 photos)
allenthepostman's Set (33 photos)
mcbeardy85's Set (46 photos)
grantgb.com's Set (37 photos)
pauls Set (148 Photos)
The biggest single gallery we found was from
www.vwbug.co.uk, which
you can find here.
I'm sure you've gone through and picked some of your favourites, you can see if they match what Volksworld Magazine had in
their top 20 from the show.
The whole show really showed the quality of the aircooled VW scene in comparison to the wider Retro Scene here in the UK, it is definitely a level of quality to aspire to rather than decry as being "too scene", the attention to detail, the time taken to get things just right and the desire to stand out with interesting ideas has really pushed the whole thing up a notch.
