publication date: May 28, 2011
Over 450 entries have already been received for the world's greatest event celebrating the dawn of motoring.
Owners of the world's earliest motor cars, from over 20 countries, have already submitted their entries to secure their place on the 115th anniversary event of the Royal Automobile Club's London to Brighton Veteran Car Run on Sunday 6 November. The FIA award winning annual celebration sponsored by Tindle Newspapers and Bonhams Auctioneers continues to attract astonishing numbers of pre-1905 motor vehicles from around the globe and with over five months still to go a full-house of 550 entries is expected. A wide variety of 19th Century motor cars are currently being prepared for shipping to London from as far as USA, Australia and China. Germany is this year's country theme and with their 125 year celebration of the Benz, one of the biggest entries of early Benz, Daimler and Mercedes is expected. An 1894 Benz Victoria is currently standing as the earliest car to enter and face the 60 mile challenge from Hyde Park, London to Madeira Drive, Brighton. |
