I could be wrong but I belive the AMOC prices are to have your car in the concourse, or the DB6 display. But it may be cheaper just to pay the normal park entry depends on numbers of people and where you want to park. We paid £25 for the DB6 display for two people.

I'm actually a bit "wistful" about this.
I used to live in Flitwick when I was a lad, and worked at Woburn Abbey - just about seven miles away - during the summers when I was 15 through 17. I'd ride my bike there, then spend the day pedaling a three-wheeler with an ice box on the front, hawking ice cream to tourists.
I moved to the States 40-something years ago, and now I actually own an Aston Martin. I'd love to come back, but I can't clear my calendar...

It is indeed cheaper to enter the Concours as a competitor. This is intended to encourage the beautiful cars which are in the car park and are often as good as those entered, to come and join in.

I have fed back your comments on the pricing to 'he who sets the price'.

no one can enter now as you are well passed the entry date of 1st may
if you have an aston then you can park up in the aston car park as normally plenty of room and turn up when you fancy. about 10 is nice as they are starting the judging proper by then.
they look like a load of blokes that have escaped the farm so easy to spot.
anyone not been before but interested in entering just go stand by them when they are judging the same model of car and take notes. lots of them. then have a chat with them as they dont bite and are just normal chaps

or, as Anne suggested.

...you could give your car a good clean and enter it in the 'On the Day Entry' for £25. This will give you an even better parking space.
