“We had a fantastic three days at the show, and this year felt like our best to date. There was a real buzz about the stand, aided by Wheeler Dealers Mike Brewer & Ed China and Ant Anstead all joining us and talking about our ‘Miss World’ competition and restoration project - it certainly drew in the crowds! I’ve been really impressed with the quality of stands and the new layout of the show, which is fantastic. We’ve had some great feedback from our partners and it was a really enjoyable three days - we can’t wait to be back next year! A huge thanks to the Clarion team in ensuring that the show was a great success.” Richard Morley, Operations Director, Lancaster Insurance

“Our auction at this year’s Classic Motor Show was one of our biggest ever. The sale was a huge success with an 80 per cent sales rate and total sales of £4.4 million. It’s always a fantastic show and is getting better every year. We were joined by hundreds of buyers and with the support of the team at the show it was one of our best ever sales. Many thanks to all the show team in ensuring that the sale was a great success.” Nick Whale, Managing Director, Silverstone Auctions

We genuinely have had the best result in our seven year history at the show with eight confirmed deposits. Sam Bailey, Car dealer, The SL Shop

“This year’s Classic Motorshow was a huge success for Discovery Channel. With our stand next to The Live Stage we were amongst the hustle and bustle of the crowds of motoring enthusiasts: there is a genuine sense of community at the show. We hosted signings with Mike Brewer and Edd China, which gave us the fantastic opportunity to meet hundreds of Wheeler Dealer’s fans, their enthusiasm created a vibrant atmosphere, one which we won’t easily forget. Thank you to everyone who joined us at the show and to Clarion for all their help and support.” David Legg, marketing Manager, Discovery Channel UK

We have people coming from overseas to the Lancaster Insurance Classic Car Show just purely visit our stand! We pride ourselves on encouraging and helping youngsters kick start and grow their collections of original memorabilia. Jackie Berry, Autojumbler

The Blues are seriously back! Saturday was the busiest day for us; it’s been fun! The Riley Club, Classic Car Club.

The Lancaster Insurance Classic Car show is now one of the best in the world, and has reached the same standard as Essen. It’s a must for any Classic Car enthusiast! Kevin Brown, Exhibitor, AB Toolsonline.com

It’s our first time and we’d certainly come back. We came with no expectations and we sold two thirds of our stock, and that doesn’t even include any of the post-show enquiries. Potentially next year it could go for from very good to excellent. Jason Gilbert, Autojumbler, N-ECAR.com

Exhibiting Options Trade Stands SHELL SCHEME: £218 + VAT per square metre This is a ready built stand/booth for you to simply ‘move in’ to and furnish with your branding and products. SPACE ONLY: £196 + VAT per square metre This is exactly as it sounds, floor space in prime areas. It often suits those who prefer to build their entire stand from the ground up. The minimum stand size available is 6sqm (e.g. 3m x 2m, 4m x 1.5m). Should Trade Stand prices present a cost issue to some smaller traders, we suggest looking at the market-style Classic Trader Village as an alternative for tighter budgets.

Classic Car Dealers SPACE ONLY (WITH CARPET): £46 + VAT per square metre Many dealers choose to make this event their showroom every year, and with good reason. Car sales at the show are historically proven to be very strong. We invite Dealers offering quality vehicles (catering to all price ranges) to apply for space, which is limited due to its desirability. How much space will I need for my stock? We work on the basis of one car, with the doors open, using about 24sqm of space (6m x 4m). Most cars (unless they’re very big e.g. Rolls/Bentley etc.) tend to actually measure no more than 5m x 1.7m with the doors closed so allow a minimum of 5m x 1.7m per car when working out how much space you need. Packing in a lot of cars very tightly may not be as rewarding as displaying fewer cars with more ‘breathing space’ so buyers can fully access the vehicles.

Restoration Area SPACE ONLY: £46 + VAT per square metre The Restoration Area surrounds the ever popular Restoration Theatre and is full of companies offering all manner of restoration products and services; from tools, to trim, from plating to painting, from a small job to a full ‘ground-up’ restoration. Restoration product retailers are required to take a minimum of 25sqm. Restoration service providers are required to take a minimum of 6sqm.
