|
|
A few general shots of my first event for 2007, held yesterday at Abridge near Romford Essex.
Over 140 cars with an age range of 98 years. From a 1909 Daimler to a 2007 Cobra Replica with only 40 miles on the clock.
The red 1909 Daimler surrounded by a crowd alongside the Cobra Club stand.
A nice mixture
And the sun shone for most of the day
Part of the American selection
Another mixture
One for Scotty
My favourite car at the show
This Mark 10 Jaguar won car of the show

Hi
Looked like a good show, was it well attended?
You picked a really good day weather wise too!
Cheers

The weather forecast for the day was awful - a "severe weather warning" the night before, but on the day it was a bit overcast in the morning and then the sun broke through at lunchtime.
As to attendance - the car display is part of a Village weekend to support the community hall and sports field, on the Saturday there is an indoor craft and antiques market as well as a few outdoor stalls.
Further to the previous messages about shows organised for profit, I charge a few hundred pounds and the gate money was about £9000 from 3000 visitors. Free entry for all in their classic cars, trophies and plaques - all in all a good day for everyone involved. |
