This three day show was a big success with the public, with Friday having a record crowd, and Saturday morning the queues were so long, they opened the show early.<\/p>\n<p>With around 1000 cars and bikes on display in five halls and a sixth hall containing the MPH\/Top Gear Live show, the enthusiasts were spoilt for choice. The show stands are mainly run by various car clubs, and they all try to put on the best display within the space they are allocated. A particular favourite of mine was the AC Cobra stand, where they had built a replica pit garage from the 1960\u2019s as a background for the cars on display.<\/p>\n<p>On display was a replica of the 1902 Easter Egg, a steam car record holder which took part in the first motor sport event in Britain in 1902 at Bexhill on Sea. Driven by Frenchman Leon Serpolett, the car was powered by an oil fired 4 cylinder steam engine, developing 106BHP at 1220 rpm and capable of 57.6mph.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan car club were celebrating the Morgan centenary this year, and had an excellent display showing Morgan cars from the last 100 years. One that caught the eye was a rather unusual 1963 Morgan Plus 4 Plus. The design was very different to normal Morgan\u2019s, with the fibre glass body being a cross between a Jaguar XK150 front and a Lotus Elite rear. Only 26 were manufactured before fire destroyed the moulds.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_581197\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-581197\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-581197\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus-100x66.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/1963-Morgan-Plus-4-Plus-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-581197\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">1963 Morgan Plus 4 Plus<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Maserati Owners club had a superb display of GT cars, including a very fine 1977 Maserati Khamsin, a two door two plus two coupe which could reach 171mph powered by a 4.9 litre V8 engine. Next door on the Ferrari Owners club display they also had a fine collection of historic Ferrari sports cars. The star of their display was a new Ferrari Enzo which drew lots of admiring glances from the crowds around the display. A modern Grand Prix car for the road, this car continues the Ferrari tradition of power with style.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_581212\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-581212\" style=\"width:
