Great set of pics and a rare opportunity to see as many models on the road together.

I spotted one German registration. Was it the only non-UK vehicle on the tour?

I think the guy who brought the green SS won the furthest, Adelaide Australia! I spoke to someone from Belgium, and there must have been more guys from overseas.

An interesting note, these cars covered over 1000 miles relatively trouble free, I wonder if the forum has helped any of the owners?

As ever the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust's organisation and support was superb.

I wonder what the return shipping cost is Adelaide - Coventry - Adelaide!

That really is an enthusiast.
