The – yes, THE – big event of the year.
HAVE you ever looked back on a particular occasion and thought, yep, that really was a day to remember? Like when you passed your driving test, or had a fantastic birthday party or, maybe, when you met your wife on holiday (and said: “What are you doing here?” Hah, I jest, of course). Well, without sounding too gushing and over the-top, this year’s Classic Van and Pick-up Show, at Gaydon, was one of those occasions. It was an absolutely cracking day with loads of vehicles, loads of enthusiasts to chat to and a whole load of fun.
