Ford Fair 2011

[Jordi17]

Anyone else going Ford Fair this coming Sunday, I am going and very much looking foward to it. Not been before so am excite about going.

Should be good

 

[TomBear]

where is it??

 

[Jordi17]

its at Silverstone

 

[alex-avfc]

I went down last year and I thought it was a good day.

Some quite amusing sights such as the Mondeo owners club (full of chav dad types) and the concourse stand (which I love, but you have to laugh at some of the owner types, for whom Ford Fair is perhaps one of the few times they get out!).

If you have been to French Car Show, you will realise this is actually a much broader show and how Silverstone absolutely kicks Rockingham into touch as a venue.

Thinking about it, I far prefered Ford Fair in 2010 to French Car Show this year.

 

[Jordi17]

Ye i hear its a big show with plenty on view, is it an all day thing or not enough to view? are you going this year?

hope the weather is nice too

 

[oliver.james]

Been a few times back when I had a Ford.

Really good show IMO, lots to see all day. You can literally spend hours just wandering around the stands and displays.

 

[smitchell1]

Its an awsome show, it's massive. You can litterally spend all day there and spend a fortune.....................which i have done in the past!!!

 

[Hixle]

I should be heading up with a mate in his FRS. Been there for the last few years, it's a good show.

Lol @ the Mondeo owners club stand; couldn't agree more!

 

[smitchell1]

I love coming across the Mk1 FRS owners club, its just a sea of imperial blue!! lol

 

[Jane]

I should be there, and camping the night before with a few mates who are on UKFN. Never been before, but should be a laugh

 

[Christopher]

Mondeo owners club?

Been once, was pretty good tbh

 

[Hixle]

Mondeo owners club?

LOL.

I s**t you not, this is the first thing I found in their media section.

[Revels]

People saying there's lots to see/do.. Do you just mean the cars? What else is on offer?

 

[-J-]

Ford fair was always the best show of the year for me until i went to the 'Classic Ford Show' up at Santa Pod...

Spend most of the day drooling over the Andy Harris MK1 running up the strip

Watch the nearside front wheel on launch LOL

[Jordi17]

Sounds good, ford doing it properly as per

 

[Fred@BTM]

this year i think they're going for the world record for "the most amount of people called Dave from Essex in one place at the same time"

 

[Ickle]

[Pearcy]

Phuzion has probably got this in his diary now!

 

[davo172]

I s**t you not, this is the first thing I found in their media section.

A-f**king-mazing. LOL!

There are probly only about 10 s**T Cars like this at the show and 9 of them will be on the Mondeo owners club and they are usually tucked up a corner some where

Worth goin just for the concours ! 0-60 All day and track all day . If you are into fords or not you WILL enjoy this show !

 

[alex-avfc]

People saying there's lots to see/do.. Do you just mean the cars? What else is on offer?

Yeah, a lot more cars there, shows what a huge following Fords have. A lot more owners clubs there, no fault of the FCS.

I liked the 0-60 too, got 9.7 in my old ZS

 

[Jason_E]

There were loads of Fords littering the roads around Silverstone, many broken down LOL! Went last year, it's a nice chilled show and huge.

 

[Jane]

Im not really a huge fan of fords but it was an alright show, amazing to see so many cars there, even if there were about 300 focus rs's that had barely any difference between them! And lol at the galaxy owners club with their subs in the boot!

 

[ScoobyGib]

lol at the Galaxys. Imagine the kids "dad it's embarassing when you collect me from school with Run DMC on full blast". Mid-life ftw.

 

[Christopher]

I s**t you not, this is the first thing I found in their media section.

A-f**king-mazing. LOL!

LOL. That's Ford Fair, all over.

 

[Scrooge]

Lol I see that mondeo, they were all s**t like most of the cars there. I will never be going again, so much rust and tracksuit bottoms.

 

[Silent_Scone]

A fine testament to the end of society as we know it, wrapped up in a day

 

[Jane]

lol at the Galaxys. Imagine the kids "dad it's embarassing when you collect me from school with Run DMC on full blast". Mid-life ftw.

LOL! I did see a very bored little boy sitting on the edge of his dads galaxy boot next to his fusion subs

 

[alex-avfc]

No lest tasteless than French Car Show, lets be fair.

I think Ford Fair as a show is a lot better, far more classics on show and cars with real pedigree than the offerings at FCS and a far better venue.
