it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Remember years ago NEC Classic car show seemed to be a bit Concours bonkers/to glossy and full of people who forgot one of the main reasons for running an older car is it's cheaper (or should work out cheaper) than a new one!

I thought it was pretty good last year. We were near the italian stands so spent a day looking at an Alfa 75 touring car racer from Italy and some Guilietta rally cars. Not so Classic and sports car. Also 2CV stand was tops, a scene of a french barn with several 2CV's in parts and a couple of rusy rotten ones! Obviously there are loads of over buffed classics but it's definately getting more accesable. I am planning on not even washing the ZS !!!! It actually looks worse washed as it's not a show car. Well that's my excuse! We also have a 205 T16 on the Peugeot stand and a 404 pick up, which despite looking like a 60's car was registered in 1980!

Been a couple of times and each time i've ended up coming away confused, one the one hand you get to see some cars up close that you never would normally and they're looking they're best too under those indoor lights but on the other, its just the whole 'Classic Car' mentality, you feel like you don't want to get too close else you'll be attacked with a bottle of Auto Glym. I dunno, think its one of those things to go to every couple of years.
