It was a cold day in Newark, the first time I have been and to be honest very disappointed - loads of non-bike related stalls, very little autojumble and half of it seemed to be tool sellers all with the same stock. Perhaps I am unrealistic and spoilt bu Stafford and Kempton - long way probably wont go again Lets start with the Honda Step Through    Last Photo shows what I think is an oil cooler  More to follow......... |

...Next up Scooters Not seen these before but talking to the guy that owed this one the wheels are just smaller than a motorcycle so the handling is similar, It has a 4 speed foot change gearbox   Note the un-restored one in the background And with Sidecar  Anyone had one of these   This had to be pain job of the day  |

Lovely rigid Goldie   Included this for one reason  These guys sell only Diversions and at Stafford they have always sold the bikes by Lunchtime on the first day This bike had 3500 miles on it £1600 But the plate was the driver  This is the dealer where I bough my first bike |

Thanks for pictures Pete.I like the show as it’s not that far for me and I have been on my Burgman previous two,a small show but no crowds like Stafford and I like the scooter hall.A mate of my brothers has two of those Lambretta Vega’s think they’re 75cc? He’s going to sell them I believe.

I was disapointed with the show too Pete , Ive been the last 3 years and this was the worst ive seen it , very small show compared to previous years , I was gone by 11.30
Did get a superdream bargain though , both left and right drip rail thingys that go on the mudguard to keep water off the discs £2 each
