Planet Earth - May 24 - June 2, 2024
28th Annual British Car Week
This year marks the 28th British Car Week! This week was first initiated when Mr Peter Egan published his now classic story in his famed Side Glances column, titled "Seldom Seen Cars" in the March, 1997 edition of Road&Track magazine (you can read more by clicking on the Seldom Seen Cars link below). In his story, he shared his then recent thoughts about reminiscing in the dentist's chair with his mouth full of gauze. After all, what else is there to do? He was thinking about what has happened to all of the old cars he used to enjoy seeing on the roads in his local town. He thought about the times when he could stand on any street corner and see marques such as Austin-Healey, Morgan, MG, Jaguar, Porsche, Triumph, and maybe even a Woodie Wagon pass by.

The above story is what inspired the creation of British Car Week. With the thought of having a target week for all British car owners to get their cars out of storage and prepare them for the upcoming driving season. Hopefully, this would result in taking their cars out for a drive within their communities to enable others to enjoy them as they drive by. These unique classic cars are a sight to behold and appreciated whenever they are spotted driving by. It is no secret they have become even more rare today than when Peter originally wrote his article over twenty-five years ago. With so many rapid changes occuring within the automobile industry today, we can only hope that older model classic cars will continue to be permitted on the roads for many years to come.

Thanks to all of the enthusiastic owners of classic British cars, we continue to keep our hobby going strong!

So top-off your dashpots, grab your goggles and driving gloves, it's time to have some real honest to goodness seat of your pants driving fun!

See you on the road!
