- To keep automotive history alive by showcasing as many different vehicles as possible

For those captivated by the allure of classic vehicles and the charm of Buckinghamshire living, Haddenham Classics beckons. Mark your calendars with our various events, join our club, polish up your classic, and immerse yourself in a world where timeless machines and vibrant community spirit converge.

we need more crew. Can you help?
We are getting increasingly busy at our monthly meets, as the weather gets better.
Therefore the crew are working flat out marshalling the cars.
We urgently need more crew members to help out with parking. If you could spare some time to assist us at future meets it would be great to have you on board. You don't have to commit to helping

Heartbeat Haddenham was established under the auspices of the Parish Council to raise money to purchase and install publicly accessible Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in Haddenham. There are now seven AEDs in the village that are ready for emergency use by the general public and available 24/7. They are located at:
* Railway Station, Thame Road

* St Mary's Centre, Church End
* Abbeyfield Care Home, 106 Churchway

We would be so grateful if you could spare some change at a future meet, so that we can keep contributing towards Heartbeat Haddenham.
what people say about Haddenham Classics
“First time at a Haddenham Classics meet, thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks all.”
“What a great selection, from the majestic Rolls to modern show cars.”
“Great meet and such a fantastic variety of cars.”
“Being a petrol head and a single girl, I've found Haddenham classics car club to be incredibly welcoming and friendly. I've now been to three meets on my own, which I've absolutely loved. It's not just for the boys, so why not come along and join me, girls?”
“Great day, well done Lee, hope to see you next time.”
“Every meet up, there's always a huge selection of not only classic cars, but also some modern cars too. All of the vehicle owners are exceptionally friendly and are more than happy to chat about their cars.”
“Thank you for all your hard work, and to the volunteer marshalls.”
“Having had a tip-off a couple of months ago about a local classic car club, Haddenham Classics, the last Saturday of every month is now going to be much more enjoyable.”
“Another very enjoyable and social experience today. Many thanks all.”
“A couple of weeks ago, Haddenham Classics visited Gaydon Motor Museum, which I hadn't been to before. I was lucky enough to bag a lift in a beautiful Rolls Royce. I was the only girl on the trip, but our museum tour guide was wonderful, and I was very well looked after by the other members of the club who went along. I'm definitely going back to the museum again.”
“Many thanks for arranging today's workshop. In a word brilliant! Both sessions were excellent, the guys were very open and informative, I learnt a few tricks of the trade today.”
