About 12 cars set out from Boreham on an overcast and chilly bank holiday to meet up with more cars at Birchanger Services.
|
|
The TR Register were represented and we joined with the North London Group and East Saxons to put on an extensive display of all models of TRs.
|
|
Chris Cunnington from Register HQ presented the range of cars in the central display area and explained the history and development of the TR Marque.
|
|
The Register was celebrating the birthday of the TR7 and 8 and these took pride of place in front of the display.
|
|
Brian Stokes won first prize for the best TR7 at the show...
|
|
...and we all posed for a picture for TR Action.
|
|
By the time we arrived we had more than 25 cars on display, covering all the TR range.
|
|
We took over the 'left wing' of the display next to the North London Group and with East Saxons on the 'right wing'.
|
|
The weather gradually wrmed up and by mid afternoon the sun was shining brightly.
|
|
 We found space to set out the picnic tables and sit around for a good chat!
|
|
Here are a few of the other TRs on display from the other groups....

|
|
...and here are a few of the other vehicles on display at the show starting with a nice Triumph Stag.
|
|
This Lambourgini looks like something from Transformers!
|
|
A beautiful Aston Martin - still one of my favourites!
|
|
and a Bentley convertable - very nice.
|
|
But not all the cars were so exotic. I remember my brother had an A40 Somerset just like this.
|
|
This Austin Seven had been meticulously prepared
|
|
A classic MGA, once a rival to the TR range....
|
|
and a wonderfully restored Bedford truck.
|
|
This Ford Thames Van has had one owner since new and has driven all over the UK and also on the continent
|
|
and finally a Triumph Herald 12/50 convertable. Its good to see all these cars cherished by their owners.
