Classic Car Shows - A Great Day Out

Classic Car shows make a great day out for almost anybody, of any age. If you already own a classic, then shows and Auto-Jumbles provide a great opportunity to meet up with like minded enthusiasts,and to discuss the merits of your car and it's marque. If you don't own one yet, then the chance see a range of classic cars both mundane and exciting, immaculate and untidy, can be very enjoyable. That's especially true of you can see the cars that you yearned for in your youth.

Those with families often feel that while a day out looking at classic cars would suit them, it wouldn't be much fun for the family. It can seem that their fun and enjoyment would be undermined by the obvious lack of enjoyment from the rest of the family. Surely it can not be long before the kids are asking "is it time to go home yet?".

But my experience with friends and relatives from 4 to 40 is that far from being boring and uninteresting, classic shows are an exciting place to be! Youngsters are often fascinated by how cars used to be in "the olden days". Older children discover the beauty of supercars from the past, before cars were designed by computer. Who can remain unmoved by grace of a classic Jaguar, Lamborghini or Maserati?

Why not try it? Some summer shows also have funfairs and entertainment - such as The Bromley Pageant of Motoring. Others include entertainment and even Air Displays - look at The Hampshire Pageant of Motoring.
