National ‘Drive it Day’/‘Ride it Day’ is the annual opportunity to raise awareness and support amongst the public for the historic vehicle movement and keeping heritage on UK roads. Fundraising is an integrated part of ‘Drive it Day’, in which our movement comes together to contribute to a section of society that needs huge help and support – vulnerable children.

It was a lovely winter’s day for a gentle run through the Suffolk countryside and our first lunch of the year, if a little on the chilly side!

The Heritage Skills Academy host a range of short courses from basic maintenance to classic restoration at their facility at Bicester.

The Hong Kong Classic Car Club was invited by the Macau Grand Prix organisers to display their cars during the GP weekend.
