I think the real ones are in the spot light really. Thinking back to last years open day when your car and a certain half built rep was along side, it was no contest as to which one folk were admiring!

I would be happy if we had a replica of the 1981 National Microcar Rally at Burford. Happy with the no date limit. Then all those replicas could prove they had been at the rally and be worth a lot more via Hypocrites Auction services, fantastic!

Alternatively pop them in the guest cars line up/area where they belong, along with the kit cars and such, and leave the real cars the pitch they are entitled to without interruption.

Better just mix it all up and get folk cross furtalising and talking. Gain for more interesting day each than talking to marque bores positioned in the rows to swoop on the unsuspecting.
