NEC CLASSIC CAR SHOW

Post by Keith Bennett » 04 Nov 2025 10:31

Just wishing all the crew on our A40 Farina Club stand the very best of luck at the forthcoming Show at the NEC in Birmingham over 7-9th (ie this Friday to Sunday).

They'll be busy on Thursday doing battle with the exhibition centre's almost impenetrable internal road system before actually erecting the stand and its display.

They're in for long, tiring days standing and discussing with the visitors the finer points of our little cars, their development and their place in motoring history.

Having myself done several years at the show, I wish them all well in their endeavours.

A very big THANK YOU to all creating the A40 stand and, very importantly, giving up their own free time, and paying for the privilege of showcasing our beloved cars to the motoring public. You do the Club proud every time

Absolutely correct. We have spent many, many days standing about at these shows on stands, once on the Club stand and it drains the life out of you. Good luck and thanks to all involved.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. We really appreciate it.

Even though I have been there the past few years selling Regalia on behalf of the Club, this is my first time organising the Stand, with big shoes to fill after years of success with all those who have organised the Stand before me.

With the help of John & Nikki Smith, we think we are just about there and hope to do the Club proud.
Boxes are packed and the cars will be loaded up later today, ready for the weekend.

Thank you again
David

Another Successful Show for the A40 Farina Club.

What an incredible weekend at the NEC Classic Motor Show!
We are so proud to have shared our love for all things A40 with so many classic car enthusiasts, including the amazing 10 new members at signed up over the weekend!!!

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you from me to the owners of the 3 fantastic cars we had on the stand and especially to a great team of volunteers (some pictured, others not) who gave their time, generosity, and enthusiasm to support our stand — your dedication truly epitomises our great Club.

Well done to you all. The stand looked great and appeared to have a prominent position this year.
