Bike Spotting

Here at Bridge Classic Cars, we love anything with a motor and wheels. We’re lucky to have friends that share that love and have their own stunning machines. Two friends of Craig’s own these bikes seen below and we couldn’t help but share them with our followers.

Something New Has Arrived…

In this morning’s dreary drizzle, a 1996 Mini Cooper 35 1.3i (1275cc) arrived adorned with roof rack and Monte Carlo anniversary stickers. Finished in a fantastic Almond Green with the classic white roof, this little classic is set to be on our competition website in the near future, watch this space…

Special Edition 35 โ€“ โ€œto celebrate 35 years since the Mini Cooper first rolled off the production line and went on to make history. Winning the Monte Carlo Rally three times in the Swinging 60s. And out-manoevering far larger and more powerful rivals in countless other racing and rallying events.

New In At The Workshop: Fiat 500 Abarth

Our 1969 Fiat 500 with Abarth styling has come in to have its steering column addressed as well as some other small mechanical faults. We look forward to working on this interesting little classic.

Classic Fiat 500’s were built and designed for small Italian roads. Made with practicality and reliability in mind, these tiny classics are a similar size to a modern-day smart car. James may describe it as a “potent symbol of Italian utilitarian chic, the Latin driving temperament and creative solutions to everyday parking problems.”

Goodwood: on this day in 1993

“We’ve seen a fantastic from Goodwood Admin that we wanted to share with you.

Not long after sunrise on Tuesday March 16th 1993 cars and motorcycles began to arrive for our ‘Press Day’ for the first Festival Of Speed.

We parked them in a crescent shape on the grass circle and the photos went around the world. ‘Goodwood is Back’ was the jubilant headline. As the press coverage gathered momentum we had just 3 months to prepare for the inaugural Festival of Speed which would bring 25,000 fans back to Goodwood in June and 28 years later we are preparing for the next one…

Bridge Classic Cars have been attending the Goodwood events since 2017 and we have made some incredible memories over the years.

We are pleased to announce that 2021 we will be taking our Competitions live to Goodwood Member’s Meeting to bring the experience to everyone unable to make it.
