If one was to come overseas from the states for a holiday this year, when would be the best time to come and attend the BEST show there

"best" can only be relative to your personal tastes. :wink:

Ronnie...........if you like lowered / high performance stuff. Go to SPA in Belgium. If you like the real old stock stuff, hit Bad Camberg, Germany. Though there are tons of other meets in Germany that are low key to us Yanks but are full of cool old rare parts. It's up to you.

That's not this year, but in June 2007 :(

There's another show that you can hit, and that's the 19th VW nationals in France,
this year on May 27 & 28 at Thenay (near Tours)

During the summerholidays, there not many show's in Europe
May I sugest you also take a look at www.vwshows.info :wink:

I've been to this show. It's cool & very different to American shows. Change is good. You should go then head over to Dublin, Ireland for some beers!

Ronnie, may I suggest Spa in Belgium or Budel in Holland.

Spa:
Great rides
Good swap
Awesome location (F1 circuit)

Budel:
A 3 day RAVE!
Ask Johnny about that one!

Tons of pictures of both on my website www.keverpech.nl.

Barndoor Mafia Fri Mar 03, 2006 9:34 pm

Budel is a BAD ASS show! Very different from American shows. The party starts early Friday and ends late Sunday afternoon. I am definetly going there next year. It is held the weekend before Bad Camberg. The best part of Budel was being escorted by Herr Oskar Schindler.

Verstehen Sie Mich! Oh, check out my Fade! Ferret hooked it up the day before I left to Holland.

Yes Ronnie. As far as I can remember, Budel is the weekend before. The same goes for the Hessisch Oldendorf event. It is a really cool event. Worth going to. Ask Noble, Lind or Mr. Barnes.

Anytime dude!

Looking forward to 2007, Budel and Bad Camberg.
I might even come over for the classic first and travel back to Holland with you guys.
You should try and make Spa that year as well.
