This is one for North Essex/South Suffolk people mostly - apparently there's a car show on 20th April in the grounds of Manningtree High School, Colchester Road, Manningtree.

I've done a bit of googling but couldn't find an organiser's page. I did find reviews and promotions from various motoring clubs and they were quite complimentary.

Several hundred vintage & classic cars, military vehicles, motorbikes and some auto-jumble, according to what I've read.

Has anyone been to this show? If so, is it worth a short drive to have a look? (I live about 7 or 8 miles from there).

cheers,
David

always as im going on holiday !

never mind
miss most of them around here,

sure the wife must tell them when to put them on !

I don't know about 7's or any other kinds of kit car - I think it's mostly classics.

However it could be a nice day out if the weather's decent - the effort those classic car nuts put into their vehicles is astonishing.

there is always some sort of 7ish car at these shows,(around here)

loads of mad nutters around here.
normally see a couple of my old cars at these sort of shows.,
then i remember why i sold them

There is a classic car show happen in clacton as well soon.
