SMMT cancel 2010 British Motor Show

The SMMT have cancelled the 2010 British International motor show as carmakers cannot commit to the event at a time when they face “unprecedented challenges”.
The SMMT (Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders) said the decision had been a “difficult one”.
“The global credit crunch has placed the automotive sector under unique pressure and has created a level of uncertainty that deters manufacturers from committing to large-scale, international events,” said SMMT chief executive Paul Everitt.
The show’s organisers stressed the cancellation would not be permanent. In addition SMMT spokesperson Nikki Rooke told BBC News that Manufacturers were, however committed to holding an event to “showcase” the UK car industry.
