Maybe because of it's age and motive power the 1911 Stanley steamer caught the eye - it was a first for the Gala and attracted a lot of attention.

Several other vehicles equally impressive, though not as dated, were a credit to their owners and what's left of the british motor industry. Brian Reid's super example of timeless quality, driven by Angela, certainly looked great - well looked after with excellent coach-painting and signwriting, of course Brian is a craftsman so maybe no surprise it looks so good
