News from Staffordshire North Region

The many events we take part in are going well, one of these in May was our first “Car of the Month” competition held at Moorville Hall Hotel in Werrington, there were many fine examples of Jaguar/Daimlers and models of all ages on the car park to choose from, the winning car belonged to Dave Rockey, it was a very nice Jaguar XKR Convertible. There are several more opportunities to win these club night events up to September (weather permitting). Our region Classic car show will be held at Moorville Hall hotel (with other car clubs joining us), it will be on Sunday 21st July 2024 from 10:00am to 3:00pm and it is well worth joining us, there will be prizes including the “Presidents Trophy” for the overall winner and a best visitor award. Some events we have attended so far have been Swadlingcote Festival of Transport, a “muddy” Smallwood Vintage Rally, Capesthorne Hall, Stafford County show, Gawsworth Hall and Tatton (plus others) - all great shows.
