No Kit Car Calendar is complete without some element of Shows and Exhibitions were you can display your pride and joy, and even more importantly, renew friendships with other club members around a warm barbeque armed with little more than a bottle of Chianti and a corkscrew.
Stoneleigh and Newark are two shows that probably top the charts on our annual list, but a not to the exclusion of other events around the counties.
The "Running Board Rally" falls somewhere between Show and Holiday and has become another annual favourite with many kit car clubs.
We bring you a snap-shot view into part of the Kit Car and Merlin calendar for your entertainment and hope it leaves you wondering why you never came along to such.
If you would like to write about or show any photos of your Merlin at a national or local show then please do send in your reports
