The
FBHVC says "Drive It Day encourages our 500-plus
club members and their supporters plus other historic
vehicle enthusiasts to use yesterday's two, three,
four or more wheeled vehicles for a day to celebrate
the UK's transport heritage at its finest. All
owners of historic cars are |
encouraged
to take to the roads on the 21 April to demonstrate
how many historic and interesting machines are still
on the road today.
Most
FBHVC members already have planned to make the most
of this day by using the public roads, meeting at
local venues, places of interest, including museums
such as Beaulieu, National Trust and heritage properties,
transport cafes, like the Ace, local beauty spots
or even car parks.
The
FBHVC team will be attending a number of the many
events and in celebration of our 25th anniversary
we have made special arrangements with the Heritage
Motor Centre in Gaydon, which is home to the world's
largest collection of British historic cars. Centrally
positioned Gaydon would make a good start point,
intermediate waypoint to visit en-route and an excellent
location to finish a day's run.
In
support of Drive it Day, the Heritage Motor Centre
will offer a special admission price of £5
for museum entry for those arriving in historic
vehicles. In addition a discounted rate will be
offered for the Land Rover Experience. This is a
ride, as a passenger, through the steep and twisting
multi-terrain track, either in a modern Discovery
or an early Series III." |
