" Yet again, the Practical Classics Show delights. A good location, easy to get to and the displays and facilities are well organised. An opportunity to see some unique and interesting machinery. "
" Brilliant show, excellent exhibits, very informative and great to discuss items with likeminded individuals."
" What an amazing day out, if you are into cars Mark the date of the next show on your calendar now. Sporting Bears being present is an added bonus, being taken out in an AMG A45s was an added highlight, the kids are still talking about it 2 weeks later and can't wait to go again. Thanks to all involved in the organisation, great event, great location, great car people!!!!"
