THE owners of classic cars will show them off during Wirral's 17th historic vehicle rally tomorrow.

It starts at the Red Fox in Thornton Hough then motors to Carr Farm Garden Centre, Meols, finishing at Thornton Hough on the village green.

The entrants cars date back to 1907.

The event's organiser, Blair Percival told the Globe: "The event has attracted massive interest over its 17-year history and gives the public a chance to see cars both stationery and in action that they would not normally see on Wirral roads."
