Cholmondeley Pageant of Power CPOP 15th-17th June 2012

[Anonymous]

Quick intro from myself.

My name is Adrian Walker and I am the Group Leader for the Staffordshire and Chesire group over on the "PSCUK" (Peugeot Sport Club UK) forum, back in July this year I arranged a club stand at the growing and best attended car and power show in the North of UK.

Cholmondeley is a show that has now been run for the past five years on the outskirts of Chesire in the grounds of Cholmondeley Castle. The grounds have a vast arena area, and also a short hill runtrack that some very fine exotica runs timed runs over the whole weekend.

Checkout http://www.cpop.co.uk for details, ticket prices for the whole weekend are available to us at discounted prices and as soon as I get details of how to get the discount I will share this with you all.

Following on from last year stand that we had, I am looking for a greater diversity of the Peugeot Brand. After having seen the superb display and attractions at this years Pugfest I felt it only right to extend an invite to anyone who would like to display an RCZ on the Peugeot Stand. Last year we had a variety of 205, 306, on display but wouldlove to have some of the more up to date Peugeot power that is available.

It was a really well organised event whereby people attending got to see and walk amongst the paddock and admire some wonderful machinery.

2011 event on our forum.

If anyone is interested in attending for the weekend please let me know soonest as I have to decide what size Car Club Pitch we are to be allocated, it would be great to get a 20 car Stand with a mix of the retro 80's, 90's and the stunning latest Peugeot models.

Your thoughts on this and any feedback on what you feel may help to attract some of the more modern cars into the clan are welcome, and actually invited.

Please respond ASAP not neccesarily to book tickets but to gauge interest would be superb.

Thanks for your time.

Regards
Adrian AKA PVFCpug

Adrian, I have never been to anything like this but it sounds very interesting.

Are you looking for cars that have been modified by their owners to look different or just normal cars?
