Default Britain On The Green - 04/28/13

The first British car show of the year, Britain On The Green, will be held Sunday, 04/28/13. This event, held by the Capital Triumph Register, is a good one every year. It's at a new venue this year, Gunston Hall - looks like a nice place. I've seen this event with quite a few Jaguars in attendance, and other times, just a handful.

I've already signed up - who else is going? (It will be a busy day for me, as I plan on bringing both the Jaguar and the Lotus.)

Default Come To Britain On The Green - 04/28/13

Just over a week to go. We'd like to get a good Jaguar turnout to this, the first British car show of the season.

It's a new venue - Gunston Hall Plantation. Hope to see you there!

Below is a picture from last year's event.

Bob,
I hope you guys get a great turnout and good weather. We had our big British car event, The Queen's English Car Show, last Sunday. We probably had 125-150 cars of all vintages, makes, and models. Even Jay Leno joined us with one of his antique restorations. Several forum members, Tirefriar, SeismicGuy, SableCat and a few others I can't remember all showed up and had a nice time looking at some incredibly beautiful cars. Have a great show.

Just got my entry confirmed - now hoping for good weather. Very excited to be allowed to enter the show! I'll be representing the "home-built-hack-job-jag/lister-repro-owners" out there. So, with Bob C. we'll have at least 1 and 1/2 Jags in attendance

Weather looks good for Sunday... Come on out! I'll have my freshly-detailed Lotus Elise there, and my '07 Jaguar XK Coupe.

They're letting the Lister in? What's the world coming to? *tsk*



It's running???



At least they won't have the muddy conditions like last year. Anyone even remotely nearby should go.

A very nice show at a new venue, and a good morning. It did cloud up around Noon, and started sprinkling around 1:45PM. Clint Hyde of the local Jaguar club was kind enough to drive my XK Coupe to the show, so I could also bring my Lotus. Thanks, Clint & Annette!

The Jaguar turnout was HUGE! There were 11 Jags pre-registered, and there must have been twice that at the show, and a really good variety of models.

I hope we do as well at our Jaguar gathering on Sunday, May 19th -

We left at around 2PM, so I don't know who won the different classes - does anyone have that info?
