Players Classic has become a staple in the UK modified car show scene and this year’s instalment was undoubtedly the best one yet.

With an eclectic mix of modified cars on display, with anything from rare VWs to full blown race cars, it offers something for everyone at the historic Goodwood Motor Circuit.

If you want to watch the action, check out our full Players classic 2024 show report video below!

Players Classic Show Cars:

With around 1000 of the UK and Europe’s best show cars on display, it sure is difficult to stand out amongst the crowd, but here are a few of the rides which caught our eye.

Slammed Lotus Esprit Turbo

This slammed Lotus Esprit Turbo from Germany was a wicked wedge of everything retro cool. The split wheels, nostalgic livery and those iconic Lotus lines provided a much-welcomed break from the crowds of JDM offerings.

Honda Civic Type R EK9

This EK9 Honda Civic was the perfect balance of form and function. The Recaro bucket seats, half-stripped interior and engine bay goodies all alluded to the fact that this hot hatch has some go about it. Whilst the beautifully tidied engine bay, spotless interior trim and custom clear intake piping made this a show car worthy of the show and shine paddock.

Vauxhall Corsa

The award for the shiniest engine bay of the day was hands-down won by this Corsa. The attention to detail and gorgeous deep candy paintjob managed to draw the gaze of spectators away from the immaculate RX-7 and a plethora of Porsches alongside it.

Mercedes 190E

The Mercedes 190E is a platform becoming more and more popular within the modified scene. Players had offerings of every style on show, just in case you needed some inspiration.

S-Chassis Show-offs

The ever-popular Nissan S-chassis’ were out in full force with some stunning examples. The whole range of styles was on display from super clean stance builds to full blown drift cars. Could the S-chassis be the most diversly modified brand in the car community?

Drifting at Players Classic

As always, the home straight of Goodwood’s iconic race circuit received a fresh layer of rubber courtesy of the professional drifters putting on their smoky displays, the same drivers who put on a show at our Fast Car Entertainment events.

The star of this year’s show was a good friend of ours, Axel, and his bonkers triple-rotor C6 Corvette. Be sure to check out our video with Axel and the Corvette on track.

Liam Doran also put on a good show with his Eventuri-tuned E92 M3 as well as his custom-built Mini, sporting two engines in the back and pulling off some seriously impressive wheelies all the way down the straight.

It really is hard to beat a day at Goodwood. Luckily, we’ve got a couple more shows there in October that we’d love to see you at, check them out below:
