ValetPRO Returns to Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club — This Time for BMWs of the 20th Century

Published by ValetPRO | Car Care Events & Show News

If you’re a BMW enthusiast, a detailing fanatic, or simply someone who appreciates a meticulously presented classic car, mark Sunday 10th May 2026 in your calendar — because the ValetPRO team will be attending BMWs of the 20th Century, hosted once again by the wonderful Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club at the stunning Denbies Wine Estate in Dorking, Surrey.

Now heading into its fourth year, this event has firmly established itself as a must-attend show in the UK BMW community’s calendar, and we couldn’t be more excited to be part of it.

What is BMWs of the 20th Century?

BMWs of the 20th Century is a dedicated show celebrating all BMW models launched prior to the year 2000 — from the sweeping lines of 1960s classics right through to the iconic models of the late 1990s and early 2000s. With over 200 cars expected on display and a friendly show-and-shine competition decided by a public vote, it’s a day of serious automotive passion set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Surrey Hills.

Whether you’re the proud owner of a classic E30, a sleek E34, a legendary E36 M3, or a golden-era 7 Series, this show celebrates the golden age of BMW engineering and design in style.

ValetPRO at the Show — Come and Say Hello

The ValetPRO team will be on-site throughout the day, and we’d love for you to come and find us. Whether you’ve been using our products for years or you’re curious about what we do, this is a brilliant opportunity to meet the team face to face, have a chat, and get hands-on with the ValetPRO range.

Our team are genuinely passionate about car care — many of us are car enthusiasts ourselves — so expect honest conversations, practical advice, and plenty of product knowledge. No hard sell, just a team who loves talking about clean cars as much as you do.

Exclusive Show Offers You Won’t Want to Miss

A Relationship Built on Shared Passion — Our History with Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club

BMWs of the 20th Century will be our third Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club event, and it’s safe to say this is a partnership we’re genuinely proud of.

Deutschemarques ’25 — 29th June 2025

Our first outing with the club was at Deutschemarques ’25 on 29th June 2025, an all-German car day co-hosted by Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club, The Mercedes-Benz Club and TIPEC (the Porsche club). Held at the same beautiful Denbies Wine Estate, it was a remarkable gathering of German automotive excellence — from classic BMW 2002s to air-cooled Porsches and elegant Mercedes classics.

The quality of the vehicles on display was genuinely outstanding. Owners had clearly gone above and beyond with their presentation, and it was a privilege to be surrounded by cars maintained with such obvious love and care. For the ValetPRO team, it served as a brilliant reminder of exactly why we do what we do — car enthusiasts who take pride in their vehicles deserve car care products that live up to that standard.

The day was a huge success for us. We connected with dozens of passionate owners, discussed everything from maintenance washes to full decontamination processes, and ran promotions that proved hugely popular. The response from enthusiasts was fantastic and reinforced just how engaged and knowledgeable this community is.

M-Powered BMW and Alpina — 31st August 2025

Our second appearance with the club came at M-Powered BMW and Alpina on 31st August 2025 — a show dedicated to the performance side of the BMW family. From thundering M3s and M5s to the rarefied world of Alpina, the calibre of cars at this event was simply spectacular.

Again, the standard of preparation from owners was exceptionally high. Walking through the display was an education in what’s possible when passion and the right products come together. We had some brilliant conversations with M car owners about the particular demands of caring for high-performance vehicles, including paint correction, iron decontamination, and maintaining those deep, rich paint finishes that M cars are known for.

Our promotions were well received, and the event gave us the chance to grow our community of enthusiasts in the South East in a meaningful way. We came away energised, with a lot of new faces added to the ValetPRO family.

Why Events Like These Matter to Us

ValetPRO was founded by professionals who understood detailing from the ground up. That heritage means we’ve always believed in meeting our customers where they are — not just online, but at the events and shows they love. Shows like those hosted by Surrey and Sussex BMW Owners Club represent exactly the kind of environment we thrive in: enthusiasts who care deeply about their cars, who ask the right questions, and who appreciate products that genuinely perform.

There is no better feedback mechanism than standing next to a beautifully prepared classic BMW and talking directly with its owner about what they use to keep it looking that way. It shapes how we think about products, how we approach new formulations, and how we continue to push the standard of British car care forward.
