It is a unique chance to walk around the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle in Lincolnshire to marvel and appreciate the most marvelously mediocre and underappreciated cars ever made.<\/p>\n<p>The expansive grounds of the Grimsthorpe Castle offers lakeside walks, formal gardens, and even a children\u2019s play area, guaranteeing a great family day out for all guests of the 2022 Festival of the Unexceptional. Show facilities were also improved for 2022 as they offer a wide array of food and beverage outlets, a new vehicle access point, more display cars, easy parking, and exclusive Hagerty entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>The annual Concours de l\u2019Ordinaire by Hagerty highlights 50 classic vehicles from 1967 to 1997. It also celebrates the world of mundane motoring with a whimsical and ironic take on the typical concours format. Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional is the only car show that celebrates the mundane. One of the best parts of the festival is that the blazers and the chinos can take a back seat as the dress code is simply smart casual.<\/p>\n<p>As a preview of what the 2022 festival has to offer, the Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional has confirmed 10 cars that will be showcased on the Grimsthorpe Castle concours lawn.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-530917\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1708\" height=\"1113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat.jpeg 1708w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-300x195.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-1024x667.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-100x65.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-770x502.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-1536x1001.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-293x191.jpeg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/FOTU2022Fiat-1400x912.jpeg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1708px) 100vw, 1708px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Fiat Panda Italia<\/h2>\n<p>It was back in 1990 when <a href=\"https:\/\/sportscardigest.com\/2014-fiat-500-sport-driving-report\/\">Fiat<\/a> launched the special edition of the Panda in celebration of Italy\u2019s hosting of the World Cup and Fiat\u2019s sponsorship of the tournament.
