Morris Minor MotorMarque

Motor Mart Autojumble

2009 Event Report

The 2009 MotorMart Autojumble shows attendance figures of 14,275 making it the second most successful in the show’s history, beaten only by the very first Spring AutoJumble in 1994.

Stand spaces, including 167 vehicles in the MotorMart, totalled 1055, a further increase of over 50 on last year.  Trading over the weekend was good with plenty of sales for exhibitors and buyers finding the prices very reasonable on the vast majority of stands.

The show’s MotorMarque feature this year celebrated 50 years of the Anglia 105E. The Ford Anglia 105E Owners Club put on a fine display of Anglias, including the unique 1959 ‘Pimp My Car’ Anglia, pimped by MTVs Pimp My Ride programme with a 1950s style diner in the boot, complete with juke box and hot dog and smoothie makers.

Sunday trading was given a boost with the addition of the Sodbury Sortout with over 100 Land Rover stand holders arriving for their one day event.  It was the Sortout’s second visit to Beaulieu and was declared by Sortout organiser, Jim Wilkie to be another great success.
