FESTIVAL OF THE UNEXCEPTIONAL
Unique Cars|Issue 482
THE RECENT Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional had another sell-out success at Grimsthorpe Castle, Lincolnshire with a record attendance of 1200 cars, 3000 guests and the Concours winner driving from Sweden to take part.
FESTIVAL OF THE UNEXCEPTIONAL

Hagerty created the Festival of the Unexceptional in 2014 as a celebration of long-forgotten everyday family cars from 1968-1989, now fondly known as the ‘Unexceptional Era’.

The 2023 Concours presented one of the best displays since its inception with highlights including 5000-mile Vauxhall Cavalier and the only Yugo Sana in the UK. In addition, many owners displayed period accessories including original dealer signage and model brochures to ensure their cars stood out to the judges.

Host of Salvage Hunters: Classic Cars, Paul Cowland was there and chatting with attendees throughout the day and Repair Lot presenter Charlotte Vowden kept the crowds entertained on the main stage.
