Over 11,000 attendees attended the April Scramble, which was the first weekend-long event to be held at capacity since 2019.
The Club welcomed a variety of content including a Healey by Caton on display outside Scramblers’ Headquarters in Building 94 on the Sunday, the Prodrive 2000 BTCC winning Ford Mondeo on the Scramblers Lawn alongside a Playstation themed display and a Drive-It day organised by Hagerty UK.

Commenting on the recent record gathering, Philip White, Associate Director of Brand and Marketing said: “It was great to see such a variety of Scramblers’ machines out in force for the April event – reflected in the outstanding displays we had across the majority of the Bicester Heritage site. It’s wonderful for us to see the club going from strength to strength, and we are looking forward to seeing what the second half of the year brings.”
