Topic: Classic car show NEC Birmingham

[Karl]

Spent Saturday at the NEC Classic Car Show, well worth going.

ElectricDave and his mate came along , plus my mum and Angie so quite a few of us wandering around 

The show was as massive as I expected it to be, the only complaints were not enough seating provided to rest our weary legs 

I somehow managed to miss the c5 that was on display  , electricdave told me about it on the drive home....

Biggest shock of the day was how many of the cars now considered classics are ones that I either owned or remember seeing driving about 

..things like Capri's, Mk2 Granada's, Carlton's, Mk2 Cavaliers etc don't seem old to me 

But I did see a car that I really want to own, if I do sell the mini-el it will be top of my shopping list     

Our entry tickets to the show also allowed entry to the MPH show, and the Classic Bike show so an excellent day out 

I also got to reminisce over my misspent youth on the Yamaha LC club stand...happy memories

I forgot all about this event - looked really good in the adverts - Love looking round classic cars particularly the Ford stands being a 'Cortina' boy in my youth !!

Sounds like one I would have really enjoyed, shame my wife and kids don't like cars ! I hope you have some pictures to post Karl.
