This show always features steam engines (miniature and often full size) vintage and classic cars and motorcycles, classic tractors, a wide variety of military vehicles, commercial vehicles, stationary engines, auto, trade and craft stalls and of course a Beer tent, refreshment stalls and childrens rides. This year we also welcome Cross Manufacturing - see below.
A great day out for all the family. Plenty to see.
ADMISSION: Adults £4. OAP £3. Children aged 5-16 £1.50.
The Club has a strong Tractor base and there are many exhibits in this category and a regular at the Rally is the Doe unit - a true articulated double powerhouse beast of a machine! There are many other specimens of note, old and not quite so, large and small.
On the military side the show has strengthened with even a Centurion Tank to be seen alongside the many other vehicles, including the magnificent display of Scammell Explorers. Heavily armed SAS Land Rovers form a very rare centerpiece!
The Classic cars have proved to be wonderful nostalgic exhibits as do the classic and vintage motorcycles and the classic commercial wagons. A splendid array is demonstrated - eat you heart out Heartbeat!
The Show has always attracted stationary engine enthusiasts with some truly interesting examples.
Often there is a fairground organ to provide the atmospheric background sounds - Marvellous!
CROSS Manufacturing 
This year we are pleased to welcome Cross Manufacturing of Combe Down as first time exhibitors at this show.
Cross made important contributions in the development of cars and motorcycles before they went in to specialise in the aerospace industry.
Cross will be exhibiting prototype machines from their museum including their famous 1934 HRD/Cross 500cc Rotary Valve machine which they ran for the first time in 40 years on 10 April this year. They will also have their 1962 Cotton/Cross 250cc Cougar prototype and their 1966 Royal Enfield 250cc Crusader testbed.
To complete their exhibits Cross are bringing their 1972 Rover P6 car powered by their own 3900cc engine.
