Wow, that was varied. Thanks for those, looked a bit better weather than I had today. Great to see a Citroen H van not selling food from the side.

It seemed a bit quieter this year, could be the weather as it did try to rain a bit, or it could be that there seems to be a few more shows like this taking place now.
There is a great variety of cars there, one of my favourites was the H van. The Simplex was great as well, with careful maintenance it looked like it would last forever looking at the huge castings it was built from, more truck size then car.

Looks like a great show, thanks for posting.
What is that black kit car? Beetle based? Looks ace!

Yes it is a Bonito. I spotted it from behind and wasn't sure what it was at first. The owner was pretty chuffed when I asked him if it was. I had a bit of a look round and it was very nicely put together. He couldn't decide what colour to paint it so matt black it was. He had an RSK replica before this but likes this a bit more for longer trips. He's been to Le Mans a couple of times apparently.

Hi Steve, Sorry we did not get a chance to chat, saw you briefly when you came in the gate. The number of traders was smaller this year and chatting to some of them it is because they now sell a lot of their stuff on line so do not need to do as many shows or pay the pitch fees. Popham is quite cheap though as a pitch of any size was £45.00 for all three days as the microlight trade fair and show was on the Saturday and Sunday. Made for three very long days getting up at 5:30 and not finishing until 6-8pm depending on the day.
