Race Retro 'could help classic car insurance customers forget their worries'

People who are fond of the kind of vehicles that require classic car cover are being urged to forget about the economic downturn this weekend and head to Race Retro.

Organisers of the show - which is being held at Stoneleigh Park in Coventry between March 13th and 15th - said it was an event not to be missed by motoring enthusiasts.

A variety of vintage vehicles will be on display, including a 1933 Napier Railton with a top speed of 168 mph and fuel economy of five mpg.

The Maserati 250F that Stirling Moss drove during his triumphant Monaco grand prix in 1956 will also be on view.

Colin Ward from the company organising the event commented: "Race Retro has quickly become an established part of the old car scene and it has managed to develop an atmosphere all of its own."

Last month, it was revealed a 24-carat gold-painted Aston Martin is due to be auctioned off at the show.
