There’s only two more days to go until the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show 2021 opens this Friday 12th November. To help you decide whether or not to book a last minute ticket for the event, we’ve compiled our top 10 list of activities that will be taking place at the show over the weekend:
1. We’re a little biased of course, but our number one activity has to be a visit our stand (number 250) in hall one to enter our two fantastic competitions – one to win a Ford Escort XR3i and the other to win a Great British Road Trip Weekend away in association with Classic Lodges – or you can also purchase your exclusive Classic Car Top Trumps pack, discounted especially for the show at £4.99 per pack!
2. Earlier this year we took to the road in our lovingly restored VW Camper ‘Bluebell’ during our Camper Round the Coast tour. Our friends at Practical Classics donated many hours of their time to give Bluebell a full re-furb, and having travelled the coast of the UK without a glitch, she’s now ready to be auctioned live by Silverstone Auctions at the Classic Motor Show in aid of Prostate Cancer UK. Visit their live auction stage at 1pm on Saturday 13th to place your bid!
3. The Sporting Bears Motor Club, known affectionately as The ‘Bears’, have raised an incredible £2,500,000 for children’s charities since 1989. You can support them to raise even more at the show by booking your Dream Ride at their stand at Classic Motor Show. There will be a fantastic array of cars for you to choose from, donated by their generous members.
4. Cast your vote at the Lancaster Insurance Pride of Ownership stand, presenting the best classic cars and motorbikes in competition. Celebrating classic cars and their owners, this fantastic display showcases the rarest, most unusual and cherished vehicles. May the best owner win!
5. Visit our stand to book a road trip in a restored Retro Mini courtesy of Art by Bex and be in with a chance of winning it for free! All Lancaster Customers will also get a free hamper to enjoy on their road trip.
6. Don’t miss the Meguiars Showcase, which brings together an amazing line-up of award-winning cars from club-organised events during the course of the year – these will be judged over the weekend before the ultimate ‘Best in Show’ winner is revealed on Sunday in the afternoon prize giving.
7. The Practical Classics Practical Challenge will be back this year, where the Practical Classics Magazine team aims to restore a car over the three days of the show – this year they are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Marina… by making one!
8. Ever dreamt of getting behind the wheel of a stunning classic you’ve never driven before? The HERO-ERA Arrive & Drive fleet will be available at the show for you to take a 4-mile spin around the NEC – you can book your experience in advance here.
9. Visit the restoration theatre throughout the event sponsored by Practical Classics to watch and get expert advice from mechanics and renovators on panel repairs, lead loading, paint polishing and more.
10. Simply walk around the show and experience an unrivalled display of diverse Classic cars, get chatting to the many Car Clubs in attendance – and enjoy the biggest Classic car event in the UK!
And if that isn’t enough to convince you, we’re offering £2 off every ticket with the code LANCASTER21. So book yours today!
We look forward to seeing you there.
