Anyone been ? what did you think ?

I went today. I thought it was really poor. It doesn't help that I went to Retromobile a few weeks ago in Paris, which was huge with lots of interesting stuff to see.

I left after less than an hour (and that included queuing). I really wouldn't bother with it. I hate to be negative but it really was a waste of money.

A shame as I took my son to it when it was at Excel and we enjoyed that. This was just very small, and not much to see.

Did it in an hour,could of done it in 30mins tbh, appreciate the organisers putting shows on but it needs to be much bigger to warrant the entry price,on the door price today was a pants down £32.50, a few Ferrari’s yawn,a few porches yawn, auction cars ok to wander around and didn’t need to buy a catalog, a few side stalls , some high end dealers with high end price tags and not much else. Save you’re money and give this one a big swerve

I'm not too far away and thought I might head there tomorrow. I don't think I'll bother now, appreciate the reviews.

Yes, i found it very dissapointing also... not much of a show at all... all done in an hour....

Sums it up - wont be going again.
Any thoughts on Practical Classics at NEC next month please?

Quite what is the point on having two shows covering a similar topic in two places in the same small country, the decision these idiotic companies who promote these thigs make stagger me

Tiny compared to when we went pre-covid, over half the size. Queues to get in that moved quickly when it opened at 12, then by 2 the place felt empty. Got chatting to a couple of owners, but not much to see really. The surprise was the Renault 12 and the Morris 1100 in the auction that sold for over £10k!

Went to the NEC last March and going next month, enjoyed it last year. Lots to see.

Hi there,

Popped along to the London Classic Car Show last Friday.

Show was quite small and certainly not a patch on the NEC events which are superb if you are a classic car enthusiast.

Heres some pics from the London event.
