I attended the Wiltshire Vintage and Steam Rally at Rainscombe Park near Marlborough on 09 June 2018. This event is hosted by the Wiltshire Agricultural Preservation Group. The show is huge and has a wide variety to see and do for the family. There are trade stands, tractors, ploughs, steam engines, steam miniatures, stationery engines, organs, commercial vehicles, motorbikes including the Stunt Monkey Motorcycle Display Team and cars. With Maddi as my company we arrived early and parked up and made our way in and we were not disappointed.
Below are the photo's I took of the cars that were on display.
