Stratford Festival of Motoring 2016

The Stratford Festival of Motoring is now a well established annual event. It combines the historic architecture and lively spirit of Stratford upon Avon, most famous for its connection with William Shakespeare, with the West Midlands area’s long established love affair with all things cars.
This was my first visit to this event. It takes place over two days of the ‘May-day Bank Holiday’, I went on the Sunday, 1st May. I was well rewarded with an eclectic array of stunning cars, old and new.
The main purpose of this website is to bring you a photographic record of cars seen at particular events.
Here are some that I took at the 2016 Festival of Motoring. I hope that they bring some enjoyment.
