2017 London Classic Car Show

Despite not posting for the majority of 2017, my motorsport related activities have been more frequent and more varied than ever before and it will be challenging to ensure I cover all the events attended/taken part in during the year. But I will attempt to catch up in this and the following posts!

So first up was the London Classic Car Show held in the Excel London in February. this was the first time I attended this particular show or any classic car focused show, so I was looking forward to seeing what it would be like. An indication of how hot the classic car market has become was this keenly priced Porsche Turbo.

















The main attraction of the show was the Grand Avenue, where classic cars of all ages were paraded up and down with varying degrees of enthusiasm by their drivers. This really helped bring the show to life as looking at static car displays all day can get a trifle boring after a couple of hours.































Some of the stars of the show for me are shown here but the best part of the static part of the show was the Ferrari stand, which was a comprehensive display of its cars over the last 50 years or so.



































The whole event, only in its third year, was quite well run and worth the entry ticket price - an enjoyable and worthwhile day out.
