I intended to attend but alas His Lordship failed to start following a sodden December. I'll be there amongst the milieu, camera in hand.

But of course - a sampling of the delights on offer below, firmly biased towards the Rover marque as a matter of course.

Despite the decidedly grey morning it was the busiest I have ever seen - hundreds of people packed in to view pre-1976 classics, plus American offerings (mostly achingly pristine) and a number of hot rods. Some general pics followed by the Rovers I saw.

Quite a number of TR6s were on show:

I always notice new details on American classics that I think I know well:

Plus the occasional cat that didn't mind the rain:

This Messerschmidt garnered a good amount of attention:

And our more familiar fair:

Hopefully next year my own P5 won't feel so allergic to its new electric fuel pump. Blast.

Indeed it was - possibly the longest two coupe I have ever seen; it had to reside in one of the spaces for 'buses & coaches'.
