The British Motor Museum is inviting visitors to take a nostalgic drive to the ‘Classic and Vintage Commercial Show’ and admire over 400 pre-2004 commercial vehicles including lorries, vans and pick-ups! The show, which takes place on 14 and 15 June, offers visitors a rare opportunity to reminisce about days gone by and relive the vintage era. 

This show is an unmissable chance to look back at a huge selection of iconic historic vehicles, attracting icons such as the Morris Minor and Ford Transit vans, through to the mighty 1950s and 60s Foden’s, ERFs, AECs, Leyland’s and then Volvo’s and Scania’s from the 1970s onwards. 

For enthusiasts restoring vehicles, there is a large commercial vehicle autojumble selling vehicle spares, photos, brochures, models and all manner of items associated with historic commercial vehicles. Inside there will be two sizable Indoor Model Shows featuring over 160 tables showcasing kit and scratch-built models of commercial vehicles and landscapes.
