Putting Camper Mart to one side, which is after all primarily a bus show, for me, before Ultimate Dubs it doesn’t really feel like the Car show season is here. Not until the Telford International Centre open those doors and invite you in, to have a look at what people have been busy doing all winter. Whether its big-money builds, or tinkering away in your garage builds, most are kept under wraps until that weekend. Some reveal on social media and some wait till you enter the show and see them with your own eyes. Either way there’s always a fair few surprises and this year was no different. From Lamborghinis, through T5 flatbeds, to T6 Trayback Swampers, it all adds to a bit of variety.
Transporter HQ of course brought a sweet variation of vans, their SoLow static T5, their jacked-up Swamper T6 Trayback (OK its a T5 with a facelift but it looks like a T6), a flatbed race truck style T5 and a brand new super-clean T6.1, on a new air suspension kit supplied branded Lowdown Transporters.
