A GATHERING of classic cars were on display at the eighth annual Blenheim Palace Festival of Transport over the bank holiday weekend.

It featured more than 350 classic cars from a range of manufacturers including Morris, Rover and Humber.

The two-day event started on Sunday and finished yesterday, with displays featuring not only sports cars but military vehicles.

Organiser Andrew Greenwood said: “You would be hard-pushed to see such fantastic cars in such a beautiful location anywhere in this country.”
