French Car Show
 
Home >  Reviews > Show Reviews > French Car Show


If 100's of modified French motors, major trade stands, a 1/4 mile drag strip and some of the best best French car tuners in the business all in one place sounds like heaven to you, then this is a show you don't want to miss.

This year was the second year for the Peugeot Gti Autosport Club and French Car Show. Held at Avon Park Raceway, in Stratford-upon-Avon, the show had great reviews last year from the major magazines, and this year promised to be even bigger and better. It was our first visit to the event, and we had our stand there too, so we were really looking forward to the day.

With everything hopefully organised, the cars cleaned, and our new gazebo packed away, we met up at Birch Services with the others to convoy down. Unfortunately due to 'unforeseen circumstances' some of the cars that were meant to be our stand couldn't make it, which was a real shame.

When we arrived at the show we were greeted by hundreds of pugs, saxos, renaults, nearly every French motor you can think of. The weather was glorious, which showed off the paintwork of some cars to the max. After finding our spot we set up our little stand and banner, and parked the cars in a circle. Kevstar, from Cruiseboard.co.uk, brought his sweet saxo over, and the stand was complete. We decided it was time to take some pics so went for a wander with Kevstar and ChrisL.


There were some really sweet cars on show, including kellie's 106 and the Ecosse cars. And it was good to see some the cars of the members off the PGAC forum. Check out the pics.

The dragstrip was hammered all day, with allsorts of cars having a go up the strip. This gave people the opportunity to see what their car could manage in the 1/4 mile dash. Some drag cars and drag bikes ran aswell, letting us see some really quick action.
