Anyone got any news on this? It has been held in December at the Sofitel before, is it happening this year?

Bangkok Post are also quoting the same dates:

Great stuff!! I always seem to miss this, but this year we arrive on the 16th. Any chance of another HHAD meet up? I know it's just a wee while after the last one, but I haven't managed to get to one yet!!

Would love to meet up with a few members.

Good info, here is the thread from last year: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16487

It is worth taking a look at if you're in town that weekend.

Thanks for the info on the cars being at HH floating Market.
I hope when they say 'the cars' they mean most of them..HH Bike Show is a non-starter every year cos all the bikes are away on a run during the day..when they should be at the 'show'.
I'd better check the Sofitel grounds, then check MV. Before finally heading off to the floating Market.

Yes, I've been to have a look at the cars when they're at the Sofitel a couple of times over the years and what you have to appreciate is that this is a rally for the owners and not a show as such so the cars come and go as they please.
Having said that, if you catch them when they're mostly there, you can generally see some pretty rare vintage cars in pleasant surroundings and seeing as there's no entrance fee, you can't really complain if they're not all there.
