Classic car owners may have found elusive parts at Aujojumble

People who had been keeping vintage vehicles off the road until they found an elusive part may now be ready to take out classic and retro car insurance cover and get their motor on the road, following an event at the weekend.

Organisers of the annual Beaulieu Autojumble declared this year's event a success and suggested drivers who could not find the spares they were looking for at the gathering may struggle to locate them anywhere.

They said sellers were asking realistic prices and trade was brisk.

In total, some 38,500 people attended the event - up 2,000 on last year and the same as in 2006.

Commenting on the weekend, the individuals behind the sale said: "The biggest problem was persuading people to leave at the end of the show."

The dates for the 2010 event have already been set for September 11th and 12th.

Meanwhile, antique auto enthusiasts who attended the Autojumble may already be planning another fun-filled weekend, as the Goodwood Revival gets underway tomorrow.
