No 17 Glamis Extravaganza Glamis by Forfar Angus Scotland
It’s with great pleasure that we confirm that the 2012 37th Scottish Transport Extravaganza will go ahead finally this year!! Get the dates in your diaries and keep your eyes peeled for entry forms and further information in the next few weeks! Saturday 7th and Sunday 18th July
A massive range of makes and models spanning over 100 years of motoring history will be on display at Glamis Castle this weekend.
A record number of entries were received by Strathmore Vintage Vehicle Club (SVVC) for the Saturday and Sunday Scottish Transport Extravaganza, which is expected to attract a five-figure crowd.
The vehicles cover all forms of motoring from an 1881 Penny Farthing to a 520bhp Noble Works which was built by Lee Noble and previously owned by TV presenter James May of Top Gear fame.
A Series 1 Land Rover which once belonged to Castle Motors in Forfar – once the town’s biggest – will also be on display after being purchased and preserved by the club.
Visitors will come from across the world to attend the rally which takes in everything from bicycles and cars of every marque to military vehicles and articulated trucks.
Stephen Dear from SVVC said: “This year’s Extravaganza is the 43rd event to be held in the grounds of Glamis Castle and continues to be one of the premier vintage/classic vehicle rallies in Scotland and beyond.
“This year we have a record number of entrants over the weekend with approx 1,500 entries received.
“This year we also have 51 different car clubs covering all makes and interests displaying their vehicles.
“We have approximately 150 mixed traders selling a variety of wares and also a craft marquee.”
The ring entertainment this year will be the Joseph Peace Fire Stunt Spectacular – blending fire stunts with comedy in a fusion of modern circus and pantomime fun.
