Shot in gloss HD with the production values of film. This will be a landmark series that captures the cult of classic cars like no TV show before Classic cars have become hot properties They’ve exploded into the mainstream because they connect us to a swish, iconic world of chrome, curves and squealing tyres. Unlocking the door to a multi-billion pound industry This series will show why old cars are appreciating faster than prime London property and why millions of people are being drawn to big-ticket classic car events and races all over the globe. A genuine television first, The Classic Car Show will delve deep into the passion, personalities, racing, history, enthusiasm and money that underpins this remarkable new and often very expensive obsession. World Record: Rare 1967 Ferrari NART Spyder fetches $27.5 MILLION at Auction A rare 1967 Ferrari owned by late North Carolina millionaire Eddie Smith was sold for more than $27 million at auction. The red Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder was one of just 10 models ever built. In the UK alone, classic cars account for £5 billion of economic activity, with some models increasing in value 50% every year These are unprecedented figures in a global recession where the FSTE-100 index has only increased 12% and gold has tanked by 23%. Richly shot with attitude, humour and information in spades The Classic Car Show will visit vibrant events, talk to multimillionaire collectors, film road tests with A-list celebrities and explain why some of the world’s most desirable luxury brands are queuing up to become involved in the biggest explosion of old-car interest the world has ever seen.
