Discover legends of the historic British motor industry with hundreds of display vehicles from BMC, British Leyland and Rover Group at the British Motor Museum!

Welcome to the BMC & Leyland Show supported by Peter James Insurance; an unmissable event for all fans of classic British marques. We have a huge variety of vehicles on display covering everything from Morris Mini Minors to Rover 800s. Dive right into the show to check out your favourite makes and models, and meet like-minded petrolheads. Here, you can examine every panel and bolt on a Triumph TR7 or announce that you’re a big fan of Austin Allegro safe in the knowledge that there will be no judgement! 

On top of all that this event has to offer, entry to the Museum is also included in your show ticket, giving you access to our collection of over 400 classic British cars.

The 2025 edition of BMC & Leyland Show is a particularly notable one, as it will mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the British Motor Corporation Competitions Department at Abingdon on Thames. The Abingdon Works Motorsport Celebration, supported by Mini Cooper Register and the Historic Marathon Rally Group, will be putting on a display of 100 cars to recognise the success of BMC and British Leyland rally and sports cars across three decades.
