If you’re looking for something to do this August Bank Holiday, you might be tempted by the inaugural Simply Classics event taking place at Beaulieu on Sunday, August 28. Owners of all pre-1986 classic cars and motorbikes are invited to take their vehicles along, becoming part of the National Motor Museum collection for the day.

Organisers are keen to stress that classics don’t have to be in concours condition in order to take part. All vehicles will be eligible to enter the Pride of Ownership competition, with the winner receiving a £100 cash prize and a Beaulieu trophy.

For entrants arriving on the day in their classics and joining the event at the Beaulieu arena, individual prices will be £10 per adult, and £5 per child. To book in advance or for more information on group entries and concession prices, call 01590 612888 or go to www.beaulieuevents.co.uk.
