[h1]Cumbria International Motor Show 20th May 2018[/h1]The 7th Cumbria International Motor Show 2018 is the largest car show in the North West, returning once again to the Westmorland Showground at Crooklands near Kendal. Last year we had a fantastic turn out from R3 members wanting to join R18 and the other participating Regions coming together for this show, taking the count on the day to just over 130 Porsches in the dedicated Porsche only parking area.

Like last year, the Cornbury House team will be bringing along the large marquee and lots of goodies from the Club shop. Porsche Reading is also bringing their large Mobile Display Unit and Porsche Centre Kendal will be displaying some of their latest cars and will be providing refreshments. There will also be display by Road & Race Restoration, 9-Apart and Reep body care.

Members from Scotland, North East and Yorkshire Region will be once again joining together for what promises to be another fabulous event in this beautiful part of the country. It’s a real family day out with plenty to see and do throughout the day.

The price of the entry is only £5 per car, with a passenger, and must be registered in advance. Register via ESPCC here and in the comments section please write PCGB.

Please ignore the warning message that "car registration is now full". The Porsche Club space has been reserved in advance. Club members have until Wednesday, 2nd May to book tickets with display parking.

Final instructions and passes will be sent out prior to this event and must be displayed on your windscreen on arrival. You must be at the show ground for 10am and there is no 'movement till 4 45pm.

We had a great drive to and from this event last year and will once again organising two meeting points for those wishing to participate from the North & South of our Region.

I intend to use Hexham BP services as our Northern meeting point once again at 7.45am leaving at 8.00am.

We will be looking for a volunteer to organise the Southern group maybe on the A66 again like last year, any takers?

So if you wish to join us for another great early drive via Hartside please add your name to this thread.

ESPCC have specified that there will be NO pay on the day admissions, all cars MUST be pre-booked.

 
I booked a spot ages ago.

We are staying overnight at a pub on Saturday in Ravenstonedale on the A685 just past Kirkby Stephen so as to have a short drive to the event on Sunday morning.

It should only be a 30 minute drive from Ravenstonedale so should imagine we will leave about 08:30.

What time is recommended to be there by before the 10:00 deadline?

 
Last year we pulled in at around 9.45am just short of the 10.00am deadline, should be about the same this year.

 
The price of the entry is only £5 per car, with a passenger, and must be registered in advance. Register via ESPCC here and in the comments section please write PCGB. Please ignore the red warning message that "car registration is now full". The Porsche Club still has space and has been reserved in advance. Club members have until Wednesday, 2nd May to book tickets with display parking.

 
In that case Greg, I will probably leave Ravenstonedale at 09:00 if anyone is taking the A66/A685/M6 route.

No doubt a group of us will be convening either at Scotch Corner Services and / or maybe Crosslanes Organic Farm shop on the A66 like we did last year. Greg mentioned to me about organising a group, however I'm a little apprehensive since I don't get back from Monaco (Historic) until the evening of 19th May, so not wanting to tempt fate relating to delayed flights and not turn up etc. Let's see how many are going from the North East / Teesside area and we can agree to meet anyway and I'm sure we can organize between us to set off in small groups. My suggestion would be 08.00am departure from Scotch Corner and 08.30am in and out at Crosslanes, ensuring we are pass through Kirkby Steven and Ravenstonedale around 09.00am on the way to the show; turnoff at Junction 36 on the M6.

Have changed my plans so now not staying overnight at Ravenstonedale.

So will be going via the A66 in the morning, probably joining at Bowes.

 
Hi Greg and Deb,

I have registered and got my pass. Will meet you all at Hexham BP Services for the ride over...

Gary & Helen.

 
I know it's late in the day but we'd like to come along. Is the only option now the standard car park?

Thanks Dave
