Hi, I spoke to a few of us last year when we went to the car show down in Worthing regarding Magnificent Motors over in Eastbourne. I go every year with my family.

It’s somewhat more organised, less Maxpower. Much more a traditional car show, loads of stalls to look around and rides etc for kids. All situated on Eastbourne Lawns.
Website magnificent motors has more info

Dates are 5th and 6th May and I’m guessing as it’s close will need numbers soon. 6th is best as 5th clashes with Brooklands.

If the weather is good I would be up for 6th May. Individual or Club application?

Count me in for the 6th.

Might be staying there that weekend anyway.

I can do a club application for the 6th May. There’s usually a good range of clubs, mg, mx5, jag, Aston, muscle cars, etc. I’d need confirmed numbers, website doesn’t have closing date yet

Rich are you booking us in?

I’ll do a club booking before the closing date

Thanks Rich

I’ve had a reply from Magnificent motors. Due to unprecedented demand, around 1000 applicants, we have not been successful first come first serve basically. Applications for next year open early Jan. will jump on it from then.
They are looking at making the area available for next year larger to allow more vehicles.

Shame, I'll ring a few contacts to see if I can get in.

I'm in.

All I need is the sun to shine.

How’d you get in? I emailed back but was told no spaces even for three cars!

If I tell you I might have to........

Eastbourne Classic Car Show, 4-5th May. Registration is now open.

Great show and venue last year the weather could not of been better, fingers crossed for this year.

I'm booked in for Sunday including the parade.

Hopefully there will be more than one coupe this year.

Have you put an individual application in? Not a club entry?

I have entered mine for the Sunday. (Its Brooklands on the Saturday)

Booked for Sunday

Only booked individually.

If we meet and take part in the parade we'll be parked together anyway in which case we can put up our club flags.

I've just booked for Sunday with parade. Here's hoping I get accepted!

Just had my booking confirmed. I’m off to Oz on Thursday so out of the loop for 6 weeks ( yippee!). Catch up after that.

Chris, is Horsham going ahead?

Enjoy your trip down under.

Not heard a peep but should be getting organised about 3-4 weeks prior to Easter i.e. about the time I get back. I will get email in Oz so if I hear anything I can post on the forum.

Thanks Chris.

Booked for Sunday

I got my windscreen badge for this event in the post this morning.

It looks like we are with other post 1970 cars and will be parked on the Western Lawns BN21 4EQ.

The Cavalcade meet up point is Fort Fun car park on Royal Parade BN 22 7LU from 9:15 am, procession starts 10am.

Got my one.

Best option would be to meet up at the fort, we can then head off together which means we'll have a better chance to be parked up together.

I received mine in the post today. Good to meet together for the parade.

I was going to suggesting meeting somewhere nearby say Prince William Parade. We can then all drive down to
Fort Fun. The car park in there usually gets rammed not particularly organised unless your in a club. So could end up scattered around the Western Lawns

I'll go with any plan.

Can someone take the lead on this one before Saturday as I'm going down to Eastboune early Saturday morning so I might not be able to pick up any messages. Otherwise I'll see you all at the fort.

Richie, for those of us who are not local, could you give us a good point on Prince William Parade that satnav will recognise please. Also a meet-up time pre Fort Fun.

We seem to be part of a very loose group of post 1970 cars on Western Lawns so it makes good sense for us be all together when we finish the cavalcade to have any chance of parking together..
