New show - worth considering as a SIG stand venue?  Could be handy for the Greater London posse.

Can you park near enough for us to carry our models in though? And am I right in thinking the 'Exclusion Zone' doesn't work on Sundays?

The Britmodeller thread highlights a lot of access issues, Kit.  Handy for Angel tube station and others no too far away but you're talking bus/cab perhaps.  Congestion charge zone doesn't apply on Sundays (it's outside it anyway) but parking will still be a problem I think.

As tempting as it is having a show in central london, And having what could be a very good venue. Parking for both exhibitors/traders and punters will be the killer issue.

Mind you, even if the congestion charge applied.......My ex Borismobile is exempt from the charge. Yes my Eco wagon is an ex Transport For London management runaround.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Sounds like auto-nepotism to me.....  ;D

My LPG Zaf is exempt too, now that you mention it, but it still needs space to park.  :banghead:
