Coventry MotoFest 2024 Report

In the U.K. you can never depend of the weather to treat outdoor events kindly but when it does  those events are so much more enjoyable. So it was with Coventry MotooFest 2024, it was sunny on both days and Sunday, the day I attended was pleasantly warm. I parked my car in one of Coventry’s “Jewels in its crown”, the Memorial Park and walked into the city centre.

Almost the first display I came across was a collection of stunning “top-end” rally cars and that is where we will start with the photographs that I took at MotoFest –

After the Rally Car display, I wandered around the City Centre to see what other cars caught my eye. Those of you who are regular readers of CSI car show/event reports will know that I like to seek out cars that are rare or unusual. That is what I did at the Coventry MotoFest event and here are the results, arranges alphabetical order –
