Showcase Your Vehicle at Haynes Motor Museum’s Inaugural John Haynes Classic Motor Show
Haynes Motor Museum is offering the opportunity to be part of the spectacular display line-up at the inaugural John Haynes Classic Motor Show, taking place on Sunday 7 September 2025.
Marking 40 years since John Haynes OBE founded Haynes Motor Museum in July 1985, the event will celebrate his legacy and passion for the motor vehicle.
Spread across five outdoor zones surrounding the Museum, the show will feature a full programme of displays, demonstrations, talks and interactive activities.
At the heart of the show will be the Haynes Manual Display, showcasing a specially curated selection of vehicles that have each been immortalised in a corresponding world-famous Haynes Workshop Manual.
John Haynes' unique ability to explain the complex engineering of cars and motorcycles in a logical and accessible way in the Haynes Manuals will be recognised and celebrated.
Vehicles already confirmed for the line-up include a DeLorean DMC-12, Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite Mk1, Series 1 E-Type and a Grey Ferguson tractor, along with three iconic vehicles from the Museum’s own collection.
The Museum is inviting the public to get involved and showcase their own vehicles that have a connection to a Haynes Manual.
Whether it’s a personal connection to the vehicle manual, a mechanical challenge overcome by a manual or a particular journey had in a car with a corresponding Haynes Manual, Haynes Motor Museum would love for you to share your story.
These personal connection stories will be displayed alongside the vehicles, offering visitors of the show a glimpse into the powerful and inspiring memories that Haynes Manuals have created and influenced over the decades.
All selected participants in the Haynes Manual Display will receive free entry to the show.
There will also be a dedicated Classics Row Display and Car & Motorcycle Club Arena for those who are part of a group or have a classic car dating pre-1985 and pre-2001.
