What a weekend! The Welhams team has returned from another fantastic Newark Vintage Tractor & Heritage Show, held on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th November 2026 at Newark Showground.
As always, it was brilliant to catch up with so many customers, friends and fellow vintage machinery enthusiasts over the two days. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who took the time to visit our stand, have a chat with the team and share their latest projects with us.
With more than 10,000 visitors attending across the weekend, the show once again demonstrated why it’s one of the biggest and most popular events in the vintage machinery calendar. From beautifully restored vintage tractors and agricultural machinery to stationary engines, commercial vehicles and specialist trade stands, there was plenty for everyone to enjoy.
This year’s event also celebrated several important milestones in agricultural history, including 80 years of the iconic Ferguson TE20, better known as the Little Grey Fergie.
The popular Saturday auction and Sunday Sort-out also gave enthusiasts the opportunity to browse machinery, discover interesting finds and search for those all-important restoration parts. But beyond the impressive machinery, what really makes Newark special is the people who attend.
For us at Welhams, attending Newark has always been about more than simply exhibiting. It’s an opportunity to meet the people behind the vintage machinery projects we work on throughout the year, catch up with familiar faces and introduce ourselves to new customers. From discussing diesel injection pumps and injectors to hearing about ongoing tractor restorations, it’s always interesting to learn what everyone has been working on. There’s nothing quite like speaking face to face with people who share the same enthusiasm for keeping classic machinery running.
Thank you to everyone who came over to see Chris and the team. We really appreciate your continued support.

The Welhams Calendar Returns!
Of course, we couldn’t attend Newark without mentioning the return of our popular Welhams calendar! Our calendars have become something of an annual tradition, and we were delighted to bring them back for another year. If you didn’t manage to get your hands on one at the show, don’t worry! We’ll also be running calendar giveaways across our social media channels, so make sure you’re following our pages and keeping an eye out for your chance to win one.

Proudly Supporting The OddBalls Foundation
Another important part of this year’s show for us was raising awareness of The OddBalls Foundation. You may have spotted the team wearing our new OddBalls hats throughout the weekend.
The foundation does fantastic work raising awareness of testicular cancer, encouraging regular self-checking and helping to make conversations about men’s health more open. We’re proud to show our support for such an important cause.
We’ll also be giving away some OddBalls hats through our social media channels, so keep watching for details on how you can get involved. It’s a great opportunity to have a bit of fun while helping to spread an important message.

Thank You for Another Brilliant Weekend!
Newark Vintage Tractor & Heritage Show continues to be one of the highlights of our year, and 2026 was no exception.
It’s always encouraging to see so much enthusiasm for vintage tractors and agricultural machinery, particularly with younger generations becoming involved in preserving our agricultural heritage.
A big thank you to the organisers, exhibitors and everyone who helped make this year’s event such a success. And most importantly, thank you to everyone who visited the Welhams stand over the weekend. We hope you enjoyed the show as much as we did, and we look forward to seeing you all again next year!
Until then, keep those vintage machines running!

Importance of Quality Diesel Fuel Injectors
Using high-quality diesel fuel injectors is crucial for maintaining optimal engine performance and reliability. Low-quality or counterfeit diesel fuel injectors can lead to poor fuel atomisation, increased wear and tear on the engine, and potential damage. Investing in genuine or reputable diesel fuel injectors ensures long-lasting performance and minimises the risk of engine problems.
Diesel fuel injectors are vital for the proper functioning of diesel engines. They ensure precise fuel delivery, combustion efficiency, and overall performance. Regular fuel injection service and proper diagnosis of diesel fuel injectors are essential for maintaining their performance.
Choosing high-quality fuel injectors also plays a crucial role in ensuring the longevity and reliability of your diesel engine.
