This year's Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show was another roaring success with both the halls and JDC stand packed with motoring fans all weekend. As well as signing up new members to the club, we also welcomed old friends to our stand in Hall 1. The stand was also well attended by the visiting media including at least four videographers so expect to see the club on YouTube soon. There was also a steady flow of merchandise sold. Plans are already underway for 2026.
