Wilton Classic and Supercar Show 2014 - 10th August

28 Jul 2014, 2:53pm
Anyone going?

I will be and even get free entry and a parking place!

Your Maserati has been chosen for static display on the lawns of Wilton House in the Maserati 100 section of the Wilton Classic and Supercar Show 2014

I wonder how closely they looked at the photo I sent ;-)

But what do you do? tell them...

It has a Maserati emblem on the steering wheel, I am sure they won't notice anything in the cockpit that would be out of place on the 1957 original ;-)

Looks like quite a show, especially with the exhibition hall.

I'll be at the Historic Specials Show at the Cotswold Wildife Park near Burford, Oxon.


When presenting at the gate, just say you are there for the car show and they let the driver in free. Immediately turn left and can park in the same field but in a line-up of "modern" cars a bit away from the exhibits and yes, you are in the park so can go and look at all of the animals as well.

Remember- this is how today's kit car movement started.

Just had an embarrassed call and two free tickets. Apparently my car isn't a Maserati and so cannot be shown on their display.

Quite glad actually as I didn't fancy being stuck there all day. I will now be heading over mid-morning

No your car's not but the photo you showed them was? :-)

Just the pretty photo from Stoneleigh and an email explaining it is not a Maserati.

It was a great show again. A bit like Goodwood but without the crowds.

They had a rally car display with them blasting up and down the park which was quite good. I am not sure it was meant to be open to the public and I wasn't as fast as the rally boys but I had fun

Like they say- "take it out and get it dirty".
