Fantastic turn out and some beautiful cars. The TR8 looks great, they're rare even here. Obviously it's great to see a 109" too, it's a Series III so a similar year to mine, but with more standard parts.
The cars were so nice, and the rain so accented the whole show. Yes, the TR8's are so rare in your parts, as the cars were mainly intended for North America. The TR8 of my friend is sweet, barefoot driving (more feel of the pedals for me!) is a treat, and the car gives rubber in the first 4 gears if you want! The 109 inch LR is the one I would like to have, as the ride is a little smoother and you have so much room in it! I figured the LR here was a similar year to yours.
With my apologies to this slip up, there were so many cars, I was awed, and unfortunately slipped up on this, I missed mention of many here, but at least they are recorded for all to see!
You are very welcome. These cars are often overlooked. The group and people are very humorous about the whole rain thing, and the atmosphere was very jovial to say the least.
Actually, the first year the group held the event, there were complaints it was too sunny and hot. Go figure! So British! It has rained each subsequent event, prayers answered! The British High Commissioner was there, he chose a 1946 MG-TD as his choice car, he felt right at home too.

Many of them indeed. And in almost any color you could hope for that one would look nice in!

I watched muted, but don't the older british cars have reverse electrical systems?

Yes, the vast majority of these older British cars have Positive grounded systems.

Yeah, it's only fitting that it rains for the British car show - lol!
