Glasgow Motorsport Show
The Glasgow Motorsport Show takes place on Thursday 27th January in Glasgow's George Square. Starting at 9.00am the show will have displays from a variety of Companies associated with motoring and motorsport. The show will also have the full 49 car line-up of Monte Carlo Historique Rally entries as part of the Parc Fermé, so you can see at close quarters these fantastic Classic cars

You can see the cars from Glasogw on the list!. I think they head off at half six at night.

http://www.caledonianmsc.freeuk.com/images/News/monte11/presslaunch/theteam_100.JPGFortynine entries will depart from Blythswood Square. Joining the nine british entries will be teams from across Europe and Scandinavia, and as far afield as Japan and Canada. Twentytwo french teams, plus entries from Italy, Monaco, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, and Spain, join the brits. So a full international field to come and see at the Glasgow Monte Carlo Historique start. A full days programme of events, including a motorsport show, will precede the official start. See main panel for contact details.


As usual it takes somone not even in Scotland to point out what going down in my City.:blush:

Just a heads up if anyone works in the City or your in Shopping.

fantastic pic there John,
I love the reliability and comfort and MPG of my mini when I go on a wee trip but there is something to be said about taking an old classic through Europe and the actual achievement in getting there with the car still going, plus they just smell better.

Leaded petrol fumes anybody
