Venue change[]

The 20010 event is not being held at Donington Park due to the works for the upcoming British Grand Prix that was to have been hosted at Donington Park. Unfortunatly the Grand Prix works were canceled when the operators failed to raise the money to fund the work and it is now to be at Silverstone.

The 2010 show is being held at 'Three Counties Show Ground' at Malvern were the Tractor World Show - Malvern is held at the begining of March. The Commercial Vehicle show is to be held on the Saturday the 27th of March (a week later than it was at Donington Park) with an Auction by H. J. Pugh & Co. in the morning.

There were 90 exhibitors listed in the guide and the various trade and club stands, numbering over 50 stands.
