International Motor Sports Ltd is delighted to announce that places on its inaugural MSA Spring Classic, 27/28 April, have already reached the maximum capacity.

MSA Classics are market leading classic car tours in the UK and Europe, featuring fantastic driving roads, stunning scenery, places of interest and motor sport venues.

The MSA Spring Classic is a brand new event for 2013, taking place on the weekend of 27/28 April. Open to cars over 20 years of age, and based at the exclusive Celtic Manor Resort in South Wales, the MSA Spring Classic is a chance for you to brush off the cobwebs after the winter and enjoy a weekend of classic motoring around Wales and the West of England.

Unlike many classic car tours, the MSA Spring Classic involves no element of competition, ensuring a relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to travel at your own pace throughout the day.

Andrew Coe, chief executive of event organiser International Motor Sports Ltd (IMS) commented: "We have been overwhelmed with interest in this brand new event and are delighted that our new venture has been so received so warmly by classic car enthusiasts. Entries only opened on 19 December and it is wonderful that the event is already full with 80 entries. We regret we are now in a position of having to turn away entries, but promise we will run the event again in 2013 with a larger number of entries available."

International Motor Sports' other classic tour, the 2013 MSA Euroclassic, will start from Liege in Belgium on Monday 9 September and travel through Germany and France, taking in challenging roads, beautiful cities and motorsport venues old and new, before culminating with a gala dinner in Luxembourg on Saturday 14 September.

In its 21st year, the MSA Euroclassic will be open to cars over 20 years of age, as well as a limited number of more modern cars, and will again boast dedicated breakdown assistance at all times along the route.

Regulations and entry forms for the MSA Euroclassic are expected to be available early in 2013.
