Website.... http://www.heritage.org.uk/
some details in the events section...
But I went last year, mostly auto jumble and some trade, large area for clubs and individuals, but best of all complete access to the museum which charts the history of British Motor Vehicles, oh, and Russ was there too playing with his Bini's.
Last year drivers got in free but I think they've changed that....

Right, it's at The Heritage Center, Gaydon, which is just off J12 of the M40...
You'll also notice that it's next door to Aston Martin and LandRover ( basically it's all owned by Ford !! )
It's never seemed to be a well publicised event, does not seem to get much coverage in the national Mags, but is excellent because of it's venue...
The Museum is great with many "First's" and prototypes on show, including the first Mini.
On the day Driver admission £5, Adults £8, Children £6, Concessions £7 and Family tickets (2 adults and up to 3 children) £25. Group rates do not apply on these days

I've been a few times and it's always been really good, and as Guessworks says the museum is worth it by itself
IIRC it's this show they usually do 'a mile of minis' in aid of The Italian Job
