Guess what? I went to Ultimate Dickheads for the first time, and here is my report.

First off, we had to clean Zi's car. The night before we put some actual wheels on it, and made sure it actually started and did general car like movements. After all, it had been on axel stands the past 3 months.

Then when we got about 3 miles outside the actual show, came the queues. OH THE QUEUES.

3 Hours. 3, f**king, HOURS. And of course, Zi hadn't replaced the dirty water in the coolant system since the last pipe bursting incident...

So I spent a fair bit of time pushing this. In fairness, it did highlight one of the main reasons I love the VW Crowd. A few of the older cars were starting to feel the heat in the Queue, and literally everyone was coming over and offering help.

When I finally got in I took some very bad dark photos of the cars that caught my eye.

This was awesome. Hand controls as well!

So, would I go again? No. It was a surprisingly big show, and pretty good. But as with all the "Big" shows, there were just too many people and too many w**k cars in the show and shine bit. If they took their time and hand picked what did and didnt make it in (Much like at Players Classic) you just end up with a better show. Also, £15?! Sorry, that is way too much.

Oh, and the traffic was shite. As per the video below...

I like a good car show.

Must make the effort this year to go to a couple.

Riad · Mar 10, 2014

Nice, i love Wayne's RS6!

MartinR · Mar 10, 2014

I saw that red tt on white alloys heading northbound on the M6 saturday. Very nice looking car

The purple one? Absolutely perfect spec.

Gally · Mar 10, 2014

Looks epic that RS6, you say hand controls? As in acceleration etc?

Lal B3N · Mar 10, 2014

The RS6 is one epic motor! His yellow R8 is stunning too!

ColinG · Mar 10, 2014

The only decent car I'm seeing there is the RS2

Waitey · Mar 10, 2014

The RS6 makes me sad inside.

_Tom · Mar 10, 2014

Same s**t, different day..

A bone stock car with different wheels and maybe slightly lowered ?

Ian_182 · Mar 10, 2014

RS 6 looks lovely,appart from the dark alloys.Standard colour may have looked better.

Jason_E · Mar 10, 2014

Black wheels I normally hate. That just.... Works.

Its not bone stock if it has a black front badge, no rear badges, black wheels and is 2" lower than it should be.

Standard is 100% better

Yup.

I do quite like those two bonkers coloured Mk1 TT's though. They're pretty odd ball, but I like them!

I like the Olive one. The mint one is on the TT forum I frequent and ED38. Not a fan myself. Its come a long was very quickly though!

cat171 · Mar 10, 2014

I saw one in that grey primer colour once on a motorway, it had some properly mad camber & was smoothed etc. It had a girl driving & I thought it was the nuts!

For some reason I like properly messed about with TT's, I have no idea why though.

Sam@NP · Mar 10, 2014

Those fake cages make feel sick

DaveDreads · Mar 10, 2014

Fake cages, why would anyone do that,
what's next fake engines?

'Yeah it's a 1.2 but it looks like a V8'.

This.

I really don't get this kind of shite! Why bother making a car sit on the deck, look truly awful and then even worse, stick a horrific looking cage in it?

On the other hand I really do like that RS6, some nice touches on it, running some serious power too!

The Chubby Pirate · Mar 10, 2014

I adore that RS6, although the fucked suspension look is out..! Merlin purple?

Rob · Mar 10, 2014

Nice write up as usual youth, I know it's a daft thing to like, but I've never seen the bonnet up on a z3, love the way it exposes the arch liners.

Dan... · Mar 10, 2014

Good write up, I was planning on going but i'm glad I didn't waste my time travelling so far. Photo's look good too!

I thought this! Ha

jayxx83 · Mar 10, 2014

Love that e63

Jason_E · Mar 10, 2014

The Fake cage is full of epic lols. So much banter going around the forums/Facebook about it. I dont get why. There are so many cars that have just had money through at them "I want air, wheels and expensive paint". No real imagination. If the owner likes it, great. But not for me. The quirkier stuff caught my eye.

Paul.M · Mar 11, 2014

I went to this on the saturday night, it was nice for something different but I wouldn't go again, I'm glad I didn't queue up for that long though jesus, we were straight in!

_Tom · Mar 11, 2014

My mates company fitted the wheels to the RS6.

cat171 · Mar 11, 2014

I remember when the rat look stuff first kicked off, people were doing it to brand new Golfs etc, but only the bonnet (i.e. stuff that could easily be swapped back in about five minutes)

Paprika123 · Mar 11, 2014

Oh...

Martin. · Mar 11, 2014

Some of those care are shocking!

Flol at the 'show' cage.

Oldskoolbaby · Mar 11, 2014

I'm quite a big fan of many aspects associated with the vag scene. However, even i'd agree that fake cages like the above make a mockery of everything else parked in the show ground. And it is true that many folk now believe the more expensive the initial project car or the more money they spend on it means the better it is. That does piss me off as there are s**t loads of extremely talented guys who labour away in there little garages for months and months to produce something truly mint. Then you get blokes turning up to E38/Ud's in the latest Porsche with self made, ill fitting bodykits, horrific looking exhaust systems and a colour scheme that wouldn't look out of place on a gay activists march flag. Unfortunately its the later that seems to get all the piccies on the web which I reckon lets the ethos of it all down. Such a shame.

This. I appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes into some great cars. Shame these s**t boxes and money sinks get so much attention really!

These 2 are lovely.

LOL@queues. Come off at the next junction and go the other way round - takes less than 5 minutes.

Saw people queuing like in the photo when we were leaving at around 2pm.
