The British Motor Show postponed – but there is some good news for car events

The rebooted Motor Show has moved to 2021, but a spin-off event is announced for Christmas. Plus Salon Privé is back on in September!

Back in November I covered – with some excitement I must admit – the launch of an all-new British Motor Show that was set to happen this August (see at this link) and as I said at the time, would include pretty much all the elements I would like to see in a modern-era motor show.

Very special and hilarious episode about the trauma, trials & tribulations of being a #BrownCarGuy

Latest Brown Car Guy Update 26022020 #BCGDaily

I’m so excited! According to a report in Autocar magazine, there will be a new Lotus Esprit – in 2021. With V6 hybrid power – from Toyota? The Esprit ran from 1976 to 2004, it’s my all-time favourite car, and we were last teased with the chance of an all-new Esprit 10 years ago when Lotus showed a raft of new concepts at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, including the Esprit – none of those happened.
