A diverse array of classics ranging from an Austin-Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite to a Porsche 968 cabriolet gathered at Botley Hill, Surrey – the highest point in the North Downs – on 19 May for the regular 'Woldingham Ring' monthly meet.
And the fantastic spring sunshine doubtless swelled numbers.
Botley Hill Farmhouse played host to the meeting, giving over its extensive car park to a wide variety of historic vehicles.
Organiser Ian Dixon Potter, who has held the event for the past two years, arrived in a smart, recently acquired 1972 BMW 2500.
“The car had spent the past 41 years in Cheshire,” he explained. “I like the style – it’s a classical saloon. It has a lovely four-speed gearchange and powered steering with plenty of feedback. The suspension isn’t hard like a modern BMW. An online report claims there are just six left!”
