Guys.
I have never been, but on New years day at the Pheonix pub in Hartley Whitney on the A30 I believe there is and has been for many years a classic car meet.
Does anyone know about this? Or has anyone ever attended and is it worth a little run out to take a look.
There used to be a Classic car renovation company there and I think it's a tradition from those days.

I've been to this about 4 times in the last 12 years, it's usually a remarkably strong turnout and you may end up parking a good 1/4 mile from the pub!

If it's sunny it's a good show.

The Vintage Sports Car Club was founded at The Phoenix in around 1934 (I think). The tradition started there and it has been a very traditional and large gathering ever since.

There are usually some interesting cars there but mainly older ones, it depends on what you are interested in I guess.
