This one-stop-shop for all classic motoring needs is perfect for those seeking an elusive part for their historic vehicle project, or simply wanting a terrific motoring-themed day out.

"In 1967 Michael Ware, the Curator, suggested that we ran an event similar to the great Automobile Swap Meet, which is held annually at Hersey in Pennsylvania. This is a great array of stalls selling spare parts and other material relating to motoring. It was a new event for us to try out, and we were well aware that ‘swap meet’ would mean nothing to anyone in Europe. We therefore invented the ‘Autojumble,’ realising everyone knew what a jumble sale was; hence the word has passed into the English language and is now in modern dictionaries.”
Edward, Lord Montagu, Wheels within Wheels, Published in 2000.
The Spring Autojumble offers plenty for enthusiasts, as well as families looking for a packed motoring-themed day out in the New Forest. Contents of hundreds of garages, sheds, lock-ups and lofts go on sale for the weekend, as automotive treasure-hunters scour the stands in search of bargains and historic motoring curios.
