NEC Classic Motor Show

Post by Pete »

I think the NEC might just have priced themselves out of the market this year @ £34.50! This show has been a good day out in the past especially for crate digging for bits and especially when Ted Walker was there with all his motorsport photos!! Considering the how much the event has shrunk since those days the price could well be a deal breaker for many, you’d want to see some special cars really!

And to make matters worse they have the cheek to charge an additional £2.50 ‘fulfilment’ fee to send a barcoded ticket by email. But despite that it’s still a good day out with a huge array of cars and stuff to look at.

You’re into well over £50 then with parking or take the train. For me I want to see interesting stuff for that money that I wouldn’t normally see anywhere else. Each to their own though and yes it’s a good day, albeit expensive day out.

NEC Classic Car Show the Parking charge is a Rip Off .. how come on some NEC Shows for example Caravan & Camping Show then the NEC Parking is Free & the Bus to/ from the Halls is still running.
Maybe the Classic car owners are seen as Loaded & can afford their day out at the NEC :o
