Following the success of this event last year, 'British Sportscar Day' is again being held at Old Warden Aerodrome, near Biggleswade in Bedfordshire, on Sunday 4th July. This is the home of the famous Shuttleworth Collection of vintage and veteran aeroplanes dating from 1909, and the date coincides with one of their legendary Flying Days. So as well as hundreds of vehicles, you'll get to see an amazing variety of weird and wonderful planes take to the air (weather permitting). In addition to the unique selection of 40 ancient aircraft, most of which are airworthy, the Collection comprises cars, motorcycles, bicycles and carriages, together with a vast array of aviation memorabilia housed in eight hangars. There are fun flights for the strong-stomached, and for those who aren’t, there’s the Swiss Garden and Bird of Prey Centre. Foodwise, there’s a restaurant on site or you can bring a picnic if you prefer.

Despite the 'British' part of the name, any fast, exotic, interesting, unusual or expensive car is welcome to attend - just like all other Pistonheads events in fact! Porsches, Corvettes, Ferraris, Alfas, true sporting Mercs, Maseratis, Bugattis - you get the idea. If you've got friends with suitable cars who fancy an interesting day out, please pass this on and ask them to get in touch with me. Last year I had the pleasure of taking 55 sports cars to this event and a good time was had by all.

BOOKING NOW! Admission is £12 per head in advance, or £15 on the gate.

How to book:
1) Come along to this Sunday’s gathering at the ‘Flying Fortress’, eat and drink and I will happily relieve you of a cheque or cash :-)
2) If you can’t make it, you can post me a cheque (please mail for details)

Best wishes and I hope you can join us at the Pistonheads Roadshow

Here are some pix from last year:

Old Warden is just across the A1 from me, and I haven't been yet this year so I will come alone if the weather is dry. Does a Triumph Vitesse count as a sports car?


YHM ole buddy

For those of you thinking 'Shall I?' it's not too late to get in - but mail me first please as the Pistonheads block booking has been sent in.

Thanks everyone and we look forward to another good day out under the 'Smiley & Pistons' (which is not a pub BTW!)
