The Veteran Car Run

The Royal Automobile Club's annual London to Brighton Veteran Car Run took place today. Over 500 examples of pre 1905 manufacture cars make the 60-mile run from Hyde Park in central London to the seafront at Brighton. As the A23 is within walking distance we went along to half an hour before taking Skye to the park.
