Austin Seven Historic Centenary Rally, Prescott Hill, 2022

The Historic Cars CENTENARY RALLY for 100 years of Austin.... 1922 to 2022 was held at Prescott Hill Climb, the home of the Bugatti Owners Club. Prescott is the place for motorsport in the Cotswolds and a great day was had in the scenic parkland and race course. THE AUSTIN 7 CENTENARY CELEBRATIONS are a week-long event. People have got cars out of their garages that have not been shown for a long time, others are favourites that are still used on the road. Here are a few models to celebrate 100 years. A big thanks to all the owners who showed us their cars.

Just as much fun watching this again as the fist time, looks like a lot of fun.

This was an amazing event, I was there in my 1926 Austin 7 chummy and I'm sure it will be the best event I will go to in my life !

[@stewartpaterson9144]

Would like to hear the sounds of the engines, perhaps with music interludes. Photography 10/10.

[@DorisVisits]

That would require an extra man .... next rally. Let ume know where and I will try and do a more extensive coverage

[@keithquestedelectrical9785]

I really like it too, what is the name of this racing car?

[@CurboroughSprinter]

@@roberttihanyi3306 well they’re Austin 7 specials. If you mean the specific one I highlighted then sorry I don’t know.

Nice cars, I have to restore my own austin box, called Marigold. But the music kills the good feelings, sorry.

[@adriantyler6911]

0:15 Anyone know more about this one? Who owns it/built it?

[@DorisVisits]

Sorry, I am sure we asked but I would be guessing at the memory. I suggest you contact the Prescott Hill Climb club, as for the organiser's name, then go to them. They are all very helpful. I decided not try and do details as I would never be able to do them all justice.

Shame music is so funereal

[@DorisVisits]

No, the music is not funeral... you must have that in mind. It is one of a three-part violin concerto by Mark Blackledge.

[@derekferguson385]

Yea it is pretty grim. ☹️

[@harrycurrell3685]

Why can,t you have an interesting talking description of the cars, instead of that rotten awful music. What has it got to do with an Austin 7???

[@DorisVisits]

Can't please them all. If I did a commentary to all these well-versed experts, imagine my head on the block for what I did say, what I didn't say, what everyone knows best.... and you can't say people don't think they know better sometimes...
