Ardingly Vintage and Classic Vehicle Show

08 Jul Ardingly Vintage and Classic Vehicle Show

The annual Vintage and Classic Vehicle Show in Ardingly in the South East of England held on 7th and 8th July 2012 was superb.  The Wolseley Owners Club stand had 11 Wolseleys members cars on, plus a member’s Vanden Plas over the weekend and were delighted to be awarded “Best car club stand” in the show, by the car club organisers.

Cars present on our stand included a 1933 Hornet, 1935 Wasp, 1937 14/56, 1939 12/48, 1954 4/44,1967 6/110, 1974 Six, and a substitute Vanden Plas 1100.

It was great to enjoy hot breakfasts together on the stand, as members arrived and tasty buffets later in the day. There was much to see and do at the show, with car club displays, individual entries, vintage and classic tractors and machinery, commercial vehicles, motorcycles, model displays, fairground organs from Holland, just to mention a few displays.

CAMRA put on a great real ale festival with over 60 beers to choose from and the music and entertainment on both Friday and Saturday evening at the festival was brilliant. The club looks forward to next year, 2013, on their new stand at Ardingly, the prize received from the organisers, for best car club stand this year. Preparations for next year are already under way!
