Classic Car Show NEC
Turbo Mini Forums

hi guys i have just returned from the classic car show at the Birmingham NEC what are u guys experience of it as i wasn't particularly impressed

yes there was lots of stuff to do but over all not many mini exhibitors of any kind and those that were there didn't seam to want to talk to me also couldn't find mini sport or mini spares there if indeed they were there

so whats you guys experience

I was under the impression it was for rarer more prestigious cars than minis... Could be wrong though? We sent a type35 and 38 from work for the show.

yeah i felt it was a little more upmarket stuff like ferrari's and bugattis so it was like i will never afford any of these so whats the point

Minispares won't return to mini in the park so there is little chance their going to be at the NEC. As for mini sport I can't speak to that.

Own the day

to be honest, i'm not sure many traders will return to mitp after this years, speaking to our local one, he just about made enough to make it worth him going

2nd year of going for me and I always enjoy it. They cater for every sort of classic car, from classic Ferrari's to Reliant Robins. There was stuff there you very rarely get to see so I found it interesting.

Not just exotics at all - I was there on our club stand with the A35,s.

My only complaint is that I never get to see it all - and its a nightmare trying with the crowds.

Did anyone else notice that there seemed to be a lot more visitors on mobility scooters ?.

yes i noticed that

probably the reason i didnt find some of teh stands like the a 35 stand was partly coz of the crowds and partly coz the place is huge andpartly coz of how poorly the maps were laid out making it very confusing

also as to oads of different things like ferraris that doesnt particually intrest me

but each to thier own

Mitp has been shit for traders since it moved from cornbury park imo

Everybody says this, and with being so close to the IMM/Mini55 next yr...

Here for the craic..

To get to see it all properly you need a weekend pass really. That's what we are doing next year.
