A Modern Modified Show and Shine competition and an evening display titled ‘MotoFest Underground’ are set to be among the highlights for the final weekend of MotoFest Month 2021.

James Noble, Coventry Motofest’s Festival Director, said: “The MotoFest Car Weekend is designed to provide a fitting finale to our four weekends of two and four wheeled festival fun.

“With a dedicated weekend for both classic car buffs and modern, modified enthusiasts alike, it’s a fantastic representation of what MotoFest Coventry is all about – something for everyone united by the common theme of celebrating the city’s motoring heritage.

“As a result of the Covid restrictions, there will be no turn up and show as in previous years, and so we are asking participants to pre-register their vehicles for display ahead of the event.

“The displays are an integral part of the MotoFest Coventry programme and we look forward to again putting on a great show for the final weekend of the festival.”
