Revival first-timers may be surprised by contemporary cars

Vintage vehicle enthusiasts planning to head to the Goodwood Revival for the first time this year may be surprised to hear not all the motors on display will be the sort that requires classic car cover.

Organisers have announced they will be holding the BGC Earls Court Motor Show at the 2009 festival, after its successful debut in 2008.

This attraction sees a range of manufacturers present current cars in a 1950s setting as if they were showing off autos of the future.

According to the people behind the event, the entrance to the BGC Earls Court looks like the front of an authentic 1950s Motor Show - complete with Art Deco design.

Carmakers set to participate in this attraction include Maserati, Ford and Jaguar.

Traditionally, no post-1966 autos have been allowed to enter Goodwood during the Revival.

Meanwhile, the 2009 event is also due to pay homage to Mini as it celebrates its 50th anniversary.
