BREAKING NEWS: Belper Steam 2016 Cancelled

BREAKING NEWS: Belper Steam 2016 Cancelled

BREAKING NEWS; The Belper Steam & Vintage Event, planned for June 11/12, has been cancelled this year due to ground conditions.

A spokesman for the organising committee told CMM today: "This is not a decision we've taken lightly, but visitor safety is paramount and very sadly, we've come to the conclusion that even with several weeks to go, we have no option but to cancel the event this year."

A friend of mine has just bought himself a secondhand car. Not a classic (well, not yet; indeed, perhaps not ever). But it was too good to miss: a low mileage, one-elderly-owner example that has spent most of its 17-year life tucked up in a dry, warm garage.

It has all of its dealer service stamps, all its MoT certificates and even all the tax discs from day one. Now that discs are no longer issued, that must constitute a full set.

Classic Torque - STOLEN!

Stolen - can you help?

PETER CAHILL - 1932 - 2008

December 2008 (CMM 237). CMM’s senior correspondent Peter Cahill died suddenly in October. Here, editor John Hodson, pays tribute to a Journalist who lived for classic motoring, in an extended version of the eulogy delivered at Peter’s funeral....

In all his years working for Classic Motor Monthly, Peter only ever let me down twice at deadline. The second time was just a few weeks ago, the first time was about, if memory serves, five years back.
