Default 2019 Events to go to.

Thought I would start a thread with events that are coming up.

I suggest we try and keep it simple and in some sort of easy to follow order !!

Also might be worth only posting events that are a maximum of 4 weeks ahead and then update as the season moves forward.

So post your chosen event, where it is, dates and entry fees if applicable.

Over to you ………..

Autojumble at the Three Counties Showground, Malvern 3rd March. £7 entry

Only a small event, mostly under cover. I have bought some hard to find parts here before so it can be a worthwhile event if you aren't too far away.

Prescott May 25 - 26

La Vie en Bleu / La Vita Rossa

Big weekend at the famous Prescott hill climb venue in Gloucestershire. The 90th year of the Bugatti owners club.

Big Italian influence on the Saturday, Ferrari's, Alfa's etc etc as well as a French contingent on the Sunday !

Lots of track action on the hill climb track !

Not to be missed , highly recommended.

Chateau Impney Hill Climb at Droitwich in Worcestershire . This is a two day event over the 13th - 14th July. This event is now in its 9th year and has become well established on the classic and vintage calendar. Expect to see plenty of top end classics both on the track and in the club areas.
Highly recommended.

Chateau Impney next week, see above for website and details. A bit like a small version of the Goodwood Festival but without the huge crowds.

Also next Sunday morning, 14th July is the second Prescott Breakfast Club meeting of the year. A good excuse for a drive out in the Cotswolds !

Default Weymouth Esplanade Charity Car Show - every summer Thursday

Now every Thursday during the summer- a charity Bike/Car Nite on the Esplanade at Weymouth. £3 contribution. 18:00 to 20:00-ish.
Usually 100 bikes and a dozen "classic" cars. A super location, well marshalled and a friendly crowd.
