I've been before - not with the car.

Unfortunately it starts at 8am - bit early especially after New Year's Eve! Check the weather as one year I went without the car and there were still cars there but nowhere near 1000. I'm not going this year but live in the area. If you're in the local area, every second Sunday of the month at the Black Swan in Ockham, they have a classic car meet

I went to this it was very good. A real petrol head gathering. There was a cue of classics all spewing fumes three lanes wide to get in. Mine was the only Scirocco there. There were sone Mk1 golfs. As it was an early in the day event people were arriving hungry and getting food was a long long cue. Too long.
I drove over from Ashford Kent. I will go again but get there early again or do not bother as its not that big and i struggled to get parked inside.
