Petrolheads and classic car fans gathered at the first Warren Classic Car Show over the weekend. Everything from Aston Martins, Lamborghinis, and vintage double decker buses were on show at the event in Woodham Walter on Saturday. The 350-acre estate of the Warren Golf and Country Club played host to the prized motors with live music, Red Arrow air displays and a visit from Formula 1 rising star Max Chilton.

He brought along 14-year-old daughter Madeline from their home in Maidstone with their 1965 Aston Martin to show to visitors. "She's been brought up with it so I think [Madeline] likes cars more than she cares to admit," said David. "It's a bit of a disease really and I've built up quite a collection. But this car isn't just for show – I've driven it all the way to Malta recently." For judge Bob Welton – who was responsible for grading the motors at the Warren Concours – using the classic vehicles out on the roads as their makers intended was an imperative. "My biggest annoyance is people arriving with their car on the back of a trailer, treating them like ornaments," he said. Organisers hope the event will become a regular feature in the county creating a new date on the calendar for UK car enthusiasts.
