Britain’s Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), the established body that runs the British International Motor Show, stated in an official press release that the “economic downturn and unprecedented challenges facing the auto industry, both in the UK and around the world, have made it impossible for exhibitors to commit.” to a 2010 event.

The British International Motor Show (BIMS) is one of the oldest and most respected events of its kind in the world. The first show took place at London’s Crystal Palace way back in 1903. Regrettably, the BIMS has fallen victim to the global economic crisis.
