Bremen Classic Motorshow 2010
Bremen: Good mood despite ice
and snow
Classic Motorshow satisfies guests from all over the
North
36,086 visitors attended the Bremen Classic
Motorshow this past weekend. "A result we're very satisfied with",
said Fair Director, Hans Peter Schneider, "even if it is a bit of a
pity because I'm sure even more classic car fans would have come if
ice and snow hadn't made the drive extremely difficult".
Frank Ruge, Project Supervisor of the Bremen Classic
Motorshow and consequently in the midst of all the action, received
a lot of positive feedback from the 554 exhibitors: "The fair has
once again grown a little more, both in quantity and quality. The
Alfa Romeo special show in Bremen was absolutely
unique: the public had access to many historically important
vehicles and could talk to experts about the history of the
vehicles. The visitors also appreciated the high-quality of the
items on sale in all vehicle categories. And another special
feature is the relaxed atmosphere that makes Bremen so
distinctive."
The visitors' enthusiasm for the Bremen Classic
Motorshow can also be expressed in numbers: 70.1 per cent had
already been to the classic car show several times before, and 83.1
per cent are already planning their next visit. This is also true
of the guests from abroad: 12.8 per cent of the visitors came from
the Benelux countries, Great Britain and Scandinavia (compared to
6.4 per cent last year).
Christoph Grohe, owner of the company, Fine Classic Cars from
Switzerland, is most likely very satisfied as well: His "barn
find", an Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport "Freccia d'Oro", not only won
the "Spirit of the Show" competition, but also found a new owner on
the very first day of the fair. The German Mercedes-Benz/8 Club
claimed this year's prize for the most original club presentation
with its presentation entitled "Tausend und eine Acht" [translated
as "a thousand and one eight", a play on words of the German phrase
"Tausendundeine Nacht", referring to the German title of the "One
Thousand and One Nights" folk tale collection].
The date for the next
Bremen Classic Motorshow has
already been set for Friday, 4th February to Sunday, 6th February,
2011. Additional information is available at Tel: 01 80 / 55 58 37
