Back in 1995 a group of motor dealers in Eastbourne decided to create a unique organisation with the aim of finding a better way for local people to see all their products side-by-side in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. They decided they wanted their own motorshow...and the rest is history!
Over the years the EFMDA have also raised thousands of pounds for local charities and the national motor industry charity, BEN.
