The inaugural London Classic Car Show was staged 8-11 January 2015 at the ExCeL Centre in London\u2019s Docklands. A strong crowd of more than 25,000 visitors attended the show over its three full days.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur first London Classic Car Show has exceeded our wildest dreams,\u201d said Event Director Bas Bungish. \u201cThe feedback from visitors and exhibitors has been universally positive. And the great news is not just that we\u2019ll be back for next year, but also that the 2016 London Classic Car Show will be at least 50 per cent bigger with even more fabulous cars and more special displays. What\u2019s more we will be ensuring that we don\u2019t lose the intimacy that made this year\u2019s Show so special.\u201dPacked full of innovation, highlights of London Classic Car Show 2015 included a special display focusing on the career of Formula 1 designer Adrian Newey, cars from Le Mans and the Motor Sport Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n
But perhaps the show\u2019s defining feature was The Grand Avenue. Running the entire length of the hall, The Grand Avenue brought the show to life as dozens of classics — from pioneering veterans to sixties supercars — were put through their paces during the show. While the blasts by F1 cars put smiles on faces it was Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider SWB once owned by film star James Coburn that won the most hearts and thus took the People\u2019s Choice Award.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe idea behind The Grand Avenue was to allow visitors to see and hear some iconic classic cars in action. It proved so popular that we had to arrange extra shows,\u201d said Bungish.<\/p>\n
Organiser Brand Events said plans are already well advanced for the next year’s event, scheduled for 18-21 February 2016 at the ExCeL Centre in London.<\/p>\n
