The club will have a stand at the NEC Classic Show this year and they have announced this year’s Classic Motor Show theme: Best of Both Worlds.

As usual we are on the hunt for your Rover's to be displayed on our stand!

The dates are 7th - 9th November 2025.

The car would need to be delivered to the NEC some time on the prior Thursday, and collected on the Sunday evening. You’ve of course have a complimentary guest ticket to the show.

We’re not looking for particular colours or specifications, just ideally in as good a condition as possible.

Ideas to help with NEC's show theme this year are as follows:

Old Meets New
Classic cars restored with modern engineering could be the centrepiece of this concept. Imagine vintage designs paired with cutting-edge technology—an iconic muscle car outfitted with an electric engine or a retro dashboard enhanced with modern touch-screen functionality.

Performance Meets Practicality
Showcase vehicles that balance power and everyday usability. A supercharged saloon that maintains its family-friendly comfort or an SUV that offers unparalleled off-road capabilities while delivering sleek urban performance.

Original Meets Modified
Celebrate individuality and creativity. Vehicles that stay true to their factory roots but have been subtly or dramatically modified—whether it’s engine upgrades, custom paint jobs, or body enhancements—could capture the essence of blending tradition with innovation.

Luxury Meets Affordability
Embrace vehicles that redefine luxury for the everyday driver. Models that combine premium features within an affordable package, or cars that offer craftsmanship and exclusivity without an exorbitant price tag.

Form Meets Function
Cars that are visually stunning yet highly utilitarian. From rugged trucks with impeccable design aesthetics to sports cars that offer surprising versatility, this angle emphasises the duality of beauty and practicality.

Conceptual Meets Real
Vehicles that were once conceptual marvels, designed to challenge conventions, and have since been transformed into tangible masterpieces can be celebrated. Whether it’s a futuristic design that became a bestseller or a one-off prototype now cherished by collectors, this aspect brings imagination to life.

Please drop a reply below with any car offerings, or even offers to help on the stand, it's a busy weekend and a great event to attend and help with!
