We're invited again to the Classic car show at Rolls Royce, Hucknall on Sunday 24th June. (Unfortunately, this clashes with the JAPSHOW at Santa Pod).
It's always a good show with a wide range of cars and, although it's called a "Classic" show, it's not restricted just to older cars, but lots of other interesting models too. They're always keen to see the Beats, although last year, sadly, there were only two (and a Skyline, posing as a Beat!)
If it doesn't clash with something else you're going to, it's a good day out with wide access to the RR site, where they build and test the new Airbus engines, amongst other things. Much of the test equipment is open to see. There are usually a few interesting planes buzzing about too :cool: e.g. Spitfire, Hurricane, Hunter, etc.
:) Entry is free, but you'll need a pass to access the main site, so let me know before 13 May if you're coming and I'll arrange the "club" space and the passes.
