We will also have a packed schedule of live displays and commentary taking place in the Show Arena throughout the day. Next to the main show arena, you will find a dedicated display for some post-1995 Ford vehicles, so there really is something for every fan of Ford. Before you go, visit the trade stands to find a range of spares, accessories and all the vital parts you need to complete your latest restoration project.

Take in an incredible display of vehicles celebrating the best of the Rootes Group, from Hillmans, Humbers, Singers and Sunbeams to the later Chrysler, Simca and Talbot products and commercial vehicles such as Commer, Karrier, and Kew Dodge.
