Hagerty’s Festival of the Unexceptional gathers the UK’s once-common—and least spectacular—family cars.
is Concours de l’Ordinaire, open to just 50 cars, judged by a panel of automotive experts. This is where attention to detail and originality will matter, which means having the correct tool set for an MG Metro.
"Festival of the Unexceptional is an event like no other, being the only concours event for cars many don't give a second look," said Mark Roper, Managing Director of Hagerty International. "At Hagerty we applaud this, we respect their level of commitment, and we enjoy seeing hundreds of FOTU-worthy cars amass at Grimsthorpe Castle every year."
The Festival of the Unexceptional welcomes once-common family cars, the kind that hadn’t really been intentionally preserved by car collectors.If there was a US edition of this event, we'd probably see vehicles as diverse as the Daewoo Leganza, Ford Topaz, Renault Encore, Chevy Chevette, Daihatsu Charade, Mercury Monarch, Eagle Medallion, Geo Spectrum, Audi Fox, and others we haven't seen in years or decades, as they had all been used up and recycled.
