ill be going to this. Ill be going in my mini but wasnt planning on showing it, is there a general carpark like at the bmc mini shows or do you have to park in the show ground?

[Will16]

Looking at the map here; there doesn't seem to be, though I'm not familiar either the venue. How come you don't want to show it?

most shows ive been to state that cars being shown have to be there at the start and cant be moved till the end. I just kind of assumed this would be the same!

Not going to make it now, I'll just have to wait until some pictures are posted up to see what I missed.

Does anybody know if it will be like last year without any trade stalls, auto jumble, etc?

There are no trade stands or auto jumble etc.  This isn't a car show in the conventional sense, it's a gathering of enthusiasts, former workers and local people to remember the collapse of MG Rover and to celebrate all the good that has come out of Longbridge.  Hence there are no traders.

 

However, there are food traders and local crafters.

It's not a show in the conventional sense, so all cars with a connection to Longbridge are welcomed.  Condition doesn't matter  - it's about remembering the collapse of MG Rover and celebrating all the good which has come out of Longbridge with local people and former employees.

Hey, take your mini. You can arrive when you like and leave when you like. It's always been like that :)
