More than 850 cars will be showcased at the region's biggest car show, the Cumbria Classic & Motor Sport Show, next month.

Hosted at Dalemain Mansion by the team at Wigton Motor Club, this year's theme is centred around German and French automobiles with special classes for such vehicles.

The impressive number of cars are the results of 470 individual entries and 380 submissions from 34 assorted clubs.

For the first time, the event will feature a dog show and a treasure hunt for children.

The activity programme also includes a taster autotest, intended to give participants a taste of motorsport via a grass test.

Wigton Motor Club's display will showcase an assortment of competition cars, with the M Sport Ford Puma, the 2022 Monte Carlo Rally champion, set to steal the spotlight.

A bustling trade area is set to offer everything from autojumble and cakes to charity stalls and car-related items.

Motoring journalist John Fife will be selling his newly published books on the history of the Tour of Mull and the Scottish Rally Championship.

The August 18 show will kick off at 11am and wrap up at 4pm.

Admission is priced at £10 per person, with free entry for children under 16.
