Rollhard @ Duxford - 14th September 2013

After a boys day out to Duxford in November 2012, high on adrenaline and aviation fuel fumes, we decided it would be an awesome place to hold a car show...lots of open space, jet aircraft, tanks, a restoration hanger and a cafe where you can get a decent cup of tea...perfect.

Roll forward 6 months and we get confirmation through from the Imperial War Museum. Rollhard @ Duxford 2013 is a go.

Join us on the 14th September 2013 for a day at the museum, where we host the first Rollhard show and invite you to explore the aviation goodies in the hangers at Duxford, check out awesome cars, grab exclusive goodies from specially selected traders and see what Rollhard is all about.

This is an all marques show, all makes, models, styles and vintages welcome.

Tickets are £17.50 and that gives you full access to the Imperial War Museum at Duxford.

I think we have around 150-160 people on facebook who say they're coming.

Mostly German stuff, we pretty much all have VW/BMW ownership histories...and so know people who have those cars!

Keen to make it as broad as possible...it's always nice to see what's going on with other marques.

Haha, we wish.

This is literally 6 lads who've some how convinced Duxford that letting us run a show there is a good idea.

You get full access to the museum...you're basically buying a museum ticket, but we have out own bit of the airfield for the show.

Racing/drifting is a huge no...given that my name is on the public liability insurance! ;)

Should just be like a big meet with decent cars, nice people and warplanes!

The Red Arrows...we asked, they said no. Boooooooo!

That's us!

Aron has the Mk2 and the Benz belongs to one of the lads in the extended group.

I'm pretty new to it...got involved as I run a lot of corporate events for work!

Strategic date planning 8)

Yeah, after VW Days in France the "Don't be a dick" clause was essential...it was like Race Wars in The Fast and Furious...yikes!

Cracking Kangman...get your tickets booked! :D

Not bought your tickets for Rollhard Duxford yet? What on earth are you waiting for? To get a few more of you moving in the right direction we have a sneaky lunchtime offer of £2 off the ticket price for the first 10 people that use the code 2QuidOff when buying tickets between now and 2pm. Get Involved - http://rollhard-duxford.eventbrite.co.uk/

Advance tickets only chap.

We are not allowed to sell on the gates (rules of the venue).

If you want to come please make sure you have bought yours in advance or we will have to turn you away (which will suck).

Rollhard Duxford is just days away and we have a limited amount of space left - if you'd like to join us, this could be your last opportunity!

Use the code LC1OFF to save £1 on the full ticket price - this is the very last batch of tickets we have, so please buy yours now to avoid disappointment.

Sales close at 9pm on Friday or when this batch of tickets is gone - whichever comes first!

Remember: There will be no sales on the gate and all passengers need tickets too!
