There was a thread recently about car boots in Leicestershire and Warwickshire, I think it was in the "local" part of the forum - you might find one there.

There's a smallish one in Rearsby about once a month! It was on last week so it will probably be a few weeks before it's on again. Check the Mercury on a Friday for a small advert!

Leicester Council have a very strict 'Rival Markets' policy so you will rarely find a Saturday Car Boot in their area. Even Sunday boots are very few and far between and the council are protecting their own car boot at the Beaumont Leys (?) Market.

About the only ones they allow within their council area are the very small and very occasional charity ones but mainly on Sundays.

Having said that there was one on a Friday in the Wigston area at a sports club. - And there are loads just outside the Leicester boundaries on Sundays.

Otherwise the nearest Saturday car boots ar Warwick and Leicester.

My information is somewhat out-of-date for that area but have a look at this (very) old thread.

Also -

1. Not sure if there is still one at Dunchurch (just outside Rugby) on a Saturday.

2. Could also try the icbirmingham.co.uk and iccoventry.co.uk for the local ads

Hello

I live in Rugby, near Dunchurch and am checking out one tomorrow morning on Alwyn Road, near dunchurch and then the Leamington/Coventry CJ's on sunday, its a bit of a drive for you but might be worth it?

If they're any good I'll post back so you could try them next weekend?
