Best of BICESTER SCRAMBLE October 2023
Our trip to Bicester Scramble in October 2023 is the subject of today’s OCC channel video, and what a classic car show it was – amazing cars everywhere – classic, vintage, retro and more recent. As this channel is about old vehicles in particular, they are the main focus of this video although I tried to include some of the newer exhibits to give an overall flavour of this event.
After a brief but fruitful visit to the Scramble autojumble hangar, I set off in the direction of the huge forward parking area. At previous runnings of the Bicester Heritage Scramble I’ve missed a lot of the cars parked up in the public parking, so this time I was keen to make sure I had a proper look around. It was definitely worth the effort, there were amazing cars to be found – I don’t remember the last time I saw a rare SAAB Sonett V4 for example.
I then set off in the direction of the central display area at Bicester Heritage where again all manner of wonderful old cars – and several commercials – were to be found, all basking in the very welcome sunshine.
Highlights at this Bicester Scramble meet for me included the wonderful 1929 Talbot pickup in correct period garage livery, two genuine Jaguar D-Types, several Turners and BMW E9 coupes, Peugeot 604 GTi, a huge gathering of vintage Alvis 12/50s tourers and saloons, Vauxhall Velox PA, a Wolseley 18hp saloon in proper /”oily rag/” condition, a Sunbeam Tiger Police car (!), a twin-engined Model A racer/special, an Alfa Romeo recovery truck (with FIAT on the back), ISO Rivolta Lele, Maserati Khamsin, a pair of BMW Z1s, plus a delightful Austin 7 Swallow tourer.
This is a long video, probably the last /”biggie/” of 2023, but there were so many cars on show at this Bicester Scramble it seemed a shame to cut out a lot of the exhibiting vehicles from this upload.
The Bicester Heritage Scramble meeting is definitely one of my favourite must-visit events now, the cars, the setting, just perfect. Let me know in the comments what you think of this event, perhaps you were exhibiting?
This is the third Bicester Scramble meeting that I’ve covered on this channel, I’ll include links to them and also the 2023 Flywheel event at the end of this one. If you’re new here, thanks for calling in and please take a look around.
