It is as advertised, the place to showcase your cars for the official Geneva International Auto Show! I highly recommend everyone to participate, as it's only one of the largest auto shows in the world, surpassed by only those at Shanghai and Frankfurt.

Pictures are highly appreciated! It is totally fine if you want to showcase a new engine.

Since it's early, cars can be teased and revealed before the show is open to the public, but you don't have to reveal cars right now.

I'll make it realistic. It'll start officially when everyone must open up the taps on March 1st and March 2nd, as those are the first press days.

Will the cars be reviewed like Squidhead did? Because I may bring one surprise that sadly went too late to Chicago... :D

Mr. Bacon could not find the funds to travel to Geneva so quickly after staying in Chicago, and the market price for his Erin Visto is somewhere between 150 and 250 usd, which isn't enough for travel expenses. So, he won't be commenting on the Geneva motor show :D

He's a fifth owner, it's seriously past due on it's maintenance, it's been "tastefully modified", and has been in 2 accidents in the past 3 months, one of which was "flipping off the road onto it's roof and into a river". It's not a very well kept example

Haha! Was that the Rauh-Welt Visto "Bad Boy Edition"? I'm surprised you even got that insured!

Ah yes. The classic "I don't want to do the work to fix it" style advert :P
