Now looking forward to it's seventh year, the show started life as "VWs@Stansted" in 2006, initially the idea of one of the teachers at the school where the show is held as a fundraising event for the school.
The first year was a resounding success and attracted over 300 VWs and a strong and enthusiastic owners-club representation. 2007 saw the show grow in size to around 400 cars with more trade stalls and more activities throughout the day. Support grew for the show and many of the day visitors write high praise of the day on club and national VW forums.
Spurred on by this support the show further improved in 2008 with good support from many show-goers who now count Elemental VW as one of the must-go shows of the year and again voiced their praises on internet forums and in magazines.
2009 was a coming of age for Elemental VW Show, with new blood and fresh ideas the show expanded further combining music, entertainment and all the standard features of a VW with a relaxed and informal atmosphere creating a unique 'festival feel' for a show of its size.
2010 was the best ever Elemental, Hawkwind's Nik Turner headlined a host of great entertainment on one of the best days of spring to a near capacity VW show that raised over £2,500 for Essex Air Ambulance
2011 was a scorcher of a show - sunshine and heat and Hobo Jones & the Junkyard Dogs back after their storming show closing performance of 2009 gave us a capacity VW show that raised over £5,000 for Essex Air Ambulance
We are planning to add to the already popular show format:
STRIPES! Vertical, horizontal, diagonal... tiger stripes, any stripes,... but stripes it is :) From just a pair of stripey socks to the full on comedy convict outfit and everything in between :)
... and more to be announced.
