Show cars at NBO

Seriously guys, as this is my first NBO, can any say what standard the (show cars) are?

Are these cars delivered on trailers and displayed on stands completely chromed and gold plated, or are these driven every day but kept in good order?

Is there separate categories?

No trailer fannies mate, we leave that to the ford boys

All very clean but driven there.

Ok Jonny, cheers

Anythink goes at nbo mate its a great meet/ show drive it like u stole it then show it like you love it lol

Mine no where near up to standard

Doesn't matter you love it and its a scoobs and all for charity

You wearing ya speedos this year jonesy

got for it dave!! i might enter the x trail...am bound to win as there will only be 1 there!! its not about winning if your proud of your car get it in!!!

Proud of ma car but she's carry a few scratches and paint problems plus a buckle on a alloy that's turning out to be a nightmare to get sorted so don't wanna drag the club down

send me some pics and i will photoshop them and you can enter a picture

Lol cheers daz lol

Im more worried of my arches starting to show rust thru. Saving up for bug or blob next year anyhow so going to see if i can het myself a garage and strip tje wagon down and rebuild the whole lot.

I wouldn't dream of entering my car even tho I'm getting it back from the bodyshop on the 29th (hopefully)

I went to a fast ford show few years ago with my dad. There was a mark 4 escort on a G reg i think it was. 19 mile it had on the clock!!!! Why would you buy a car if its not going to get driven??? It was mint like lol

The club stand and the show and shine competition are 2 very different things, if you are just putting it on the club stand you can bring it covered in mud with 4 bald tyres, it doesn't matter, the show and shine competition has to be entered on the day and they expect a driven but clean car, there are standard and modded classes to enter.

Back in 2008 i took my black classic to NBO when it was at its best, it had won JAE, RSCS, & several other shows , the previous year, i didn't even get placed, so that will give you an idea of the std required. I'm sure Gippa took his last year & also didn't win either.

I've learned that there is no point in havin a gelaming garage ornament, as i lost it all in one quick crash.

I know johnny but she would be representing to club if you get me tbh think I am gonna just get ma car there in one peace get the work done I need to then enjoy the scenery

Yeah we not showing ours i know we are valeters/detailers but the hatch is driven more than our old bugeye.so i agree with maxboost we paid a lot of money for the sti for it to be an expensive orniment so this one is driven and we are enjoying it.so just going to enjoy the day as a club.but good luck to all the entrants

No chance of winning with mine but its s bit of fun, bit of added advertisement for nesf, and hopefully make a bit extra for the charity fund

Same here bud - I did 13,000 miles in mine last year.....it's still getting entered for the craic

Well, thanx for the replies, reading between the lines, seems the cars are at a very high standard, and a few are reluctant to enter for fear of not getting placed, is it not a case of (its not the winning, it's the taking part that counts!) really looking forward to seeing some AWSOME scoobz

Same here. Will be a good laugh if nowt else. Hopefully no laughing at my expense!

I think we all should enter for the hell of it. Would be funny thing to see 77+ cars from one club trying to get into the arena lol

I'll second that lol

I entere my old one last year just for the craic costs a pound or maybe 2 to enter I wasn't bothered about winning or anything it was fr charity so just another couple of quid for the pot off me
