With over 2000 cars on display, you’re guaranteed to miss something at the Lancaster Insurance Classic Car Motor Show that packed the NEC from 14-16 November. From Maserati Club UK’s magnificent centre piece to the superb 60th anniversary of the Swallow Doretti tucked away in a hall corner, the range of marques and models was, as always, wonderfully diverse.
From Nick Mason’s spindly ex-Hamish Moffatt Bugatti Type 13 Brescia to a pair of rare South African-built Ford Capri Peranas, there was something for every automotive taste. The success of this year’s event has encouraged a move to new halls with expanded display space for 2015.
