It's that time of the year and once again we'll be the Classic Motor Show. We will be located in Hall 5 on stand 345 near the Fiat club.

(Note the code is available to club members only)

We have 3 great cars lined up for display this year:
Rob Warren's excellent Uno Turbo conversion.
Simon Wilson's lovely VS

Please come and see us on the club stand, it's great to see club members and we like people to come and see us :)

Great to meet up and chat with you on Saturday Andy, many thanks for the tips! It must be over 20 years since I last visited the show, so many more halls now it’s way bigger than I remember. I’ll post some info on my Lido in due course.

Hi, Alan Hutton - a recent new club member. I attended the show on the Friday and really enjoyed some long chats with Rob, Simon and Ian and others too. Great to see a couple of pretty original cars in such fantastic condition.
Some of the rest of the show interest was average in comparison to your stand , especially all those modern cars for auction and the auto jumble (hmm, was that because there was no X1/9 stuff! there?).

Still working on getting my '85VS back running, MOT should be in a couple of weeks.
I owned my car since 1988 and it was doing garage durability work for 19 years till I decided to get it back running and with the help of my excellent mobile mechanic many things have been replaced / renewed ready for driving.
I hope to write a wee blog of all the things done over the past few months.
I must say I have enjoyed trawling through your club forums to "gen up" on problems to look out for and those helped us a great deal.
Winter will be for sorting out the well documented issues with the electrics and I will implement my own take on the famous BWM, wipers etc (electronics are my area!). More to come.
p.s. The gate staff took our printed tickets, they were .pdf and I could send a file copy if that helps.
