The BMC & Leyland Show has been held at the British Motor Museum since 2013. This year was special because the 70th anniversary of the forming of the BMC Competitions Department was being celebrated. In fact, it was the cars that had assembled to celebrate that event, in the “top grounds” car parks, that were probably  in the majority this year. I covered that section in a separate post, the link to which is given below.

However, I didn’t want to ignore the cars that make up the core of the show and I am sharing photos of some of the cars here –
