Ferry car show reaches top gear for fifth year

Evesham Editorial 3rd Jul, 2015 Updated: 20th Oct, 2016   0

THE FIFTH annual Hampton Ferry Car and Bike Show drew exhibitors to the Vale from as far away as Manchester and Sheffield.

The annual riverside gathering of car, bike and all things mechanical last Sunday (June 28) drew hundreds of exhibitors and spectators to Hampton Ferry in the heart of Evesham, despite the rainy start to the day.

Show judge Geoff Smith toured the site and was impressed at the quantity and quality of cars, bikes, trailers and trucks that turned out for the show.
