Doncaster Custom Car Show is generally
regarded as the first major show of the UK show season, and
so it’s always been CUK’s first chance to have a
club stand and show off some of the club’s cars. This
year was no different, and for the third year CUK had a stand
at the show, with some highly modded motors.
Ribzzy’s Bravo was fresh out the bodyshop with its new
Ferrari red and glitter respray, and more trick bits to the
leather-laden interior. Pete’s bright yellow VW Beetle
was on show with its new gorgeous sounding twin exhausts, 19”
rims, and smooth bodywork. Sy’s Astra was looking all
right in white, with a sweet body kit and 18” Compomotive
MO’s. Random’s Z3 was ready to turn heads left right
and centre, not surprising considering it has an Animal body
kit, lambo door conversion, custom rear lights and flip paint!
Kanon once again brought his CRX out from the garage, which
is a sight to be seen with its glitter paint job. When the sun
hits the car it’s a rainbow of colour and sparkle! With
Beardy’s V6 Corsa snapped up by Midas for their trade
stand, A_Reg was ready with his sweet XR2i, with the mk5 rear
bumper, twin exhausts, flush tailgate, polished rims and coilover
suspension, this car aint to be sniffed at! Plus Messer’s
newly purchased 106 Rallye with Speedline lightweight rims and
big brake conversion completed the line up.
With the arrangements all made for the convoy down, everyone
made their way to Birch Services on the M62, in the rain. The
weather wasn’t looking too great for the weekend, but
Taryn had faith and was positive it was going to be glorious
sunshine for the rest of the weekend. Just so she could show
off her own assets I bet!
Things never run smoothly when CUK go on tour, but it’s
all part of the fun, and the first hiccup was at the F1 hotel.
There had been some mistake or confusion with some peoples’
bookings, so a lot of people only had a room for the Friday
night. Simple answer, share rooms! One easy way for people to
get know each other better. Once all the panic had died down,
there was only one left to do… DRINK.
