Classic & Sports Car|April 2018

More than 700 classic cars packed into the ExCeL centre for the London Classic Car Show, which took place from 15-18 February.

Classic Metal Takes Over Docklands

The expanded event featured demo runs on the indoor Grand Avenue track by no fewer than 60 machines, from a Benetton F1 car to a twin-engined ‘Twini’ Mini. Also on the move was the sole surviving 1939 Daimler DB18 Drophead – the car from which Winston Churchill addressed the crowds during election campaigns.
