“What a lovely and surprising event! I took my family and we had a brilliant experience. The cars were fantastic - so rare to get up that close and personal to such unusual vehicles. I thought the whole event was really inspiring, especially for young people looking to pursue a career in engineering and car design etc. it really shows you what's possible. Thank you for a great day out!”
