Busfest..

Postby dan_cameron » Mon Jun 05, 2017 11:23 am

Hello,

Just wondering if many of you guys go to Busfest?.

We are one of the main sponsors for the show this year and would like to get an idea of the different style of vans that will be there.

All the best

Leyland tigers give me happy memories of childhood, my dad drove one for finglands coaches in the '80's, stale smoke and mint imperials that's what they always smell like, if they were as bad as you say that would explain why it was always over the pit in the workshop :lol: And i was left exploring the coach yard :P N

haha, only just spotted it was for VW vans lol. :shock:

I got confused with the other show they do Vanfest ( which got cancelled ).. which would have been more your thing. :lol:

So next question. Are there many Transit shows similar to Busfest, camperjam etc?.
