Launton Classic and Retro Car Show

The first Launton Classic and Retro Car Show was on Saturday 22 June on the Launton Playing Fields, after being organised in just 7 weeks. We were lucky with the weather after a wet start early in the morning, but by the time the show started sunshine was on its way.

Across the day we welcomed over 150 cars to display from classics to retro to the unusual. As well as the wonderful cars we had an Engine from Bicester Fire Station, and entertainment for children in the form of bouncy castles, go karts, and a racing simulator. We would like to say a massive thank you to all of the exhibitors: without you there would not have been a show. Thank you to the traders and all the visitors who attended. In addition thank you to everyone in the village for their support with this event.

We would also like to thank the show sponsors: Nolan Oils, Prestige Valet, Greenland Recovery and Transportation, and First Choice Medical, and to Peter Deeley for the parking field

The biggest thank you needs to go to all of the volunteers who helped us on the day to make sure the show ran smoothly. We appreciate the Launton Playing Field Association allowing us to use the playing field. This was a free event so we just asked for donations to the LPFA if people wanted to and we were overwhelmed by the amount we received. The final total is not confirmed but it looks like we are near £1,000! See photos below from the show.
