Over 600 classic and vintage vehicles will take part in a seafront motor event.

The Magnificent Motor festival will take place at Eastbourne's Western Lawns on May 4 and 5 from 10am until 5pm both days.

The event, which is a joint venture organised by Eastbourne Borough Council, Eastbourne Historic Vehicle Club and East Sussex Omnibus Society, is what they call the "biggest free motoring spectacular on the south coast".
