ive been told you can just drive in and show your car.
i emailed them and put my car make and model in the subject box so they can get a rough amount of cars going.
its free only have to pay for the autojumble and museum.

not realy. mainly motorbike parts but some car stands. very spaced out with know lighting and heating (freezing)
but concidering the length of time they organised it in, it wasnt to bad. just couldnt tell which was the cars on show and which where in the car park (bit here and a bit their) so all over the place.
