Unfortunately, after over forty years, this year’s British Car Day is cancelled. We are looking ahead to April, when we hope to do another event.

We are thinking of all of our British car friends, and hoping that everyone will be able to gather soon.

As with all events in these strange days, Rolling British Car Day has been cancelled. We are moving forward with plans for an even better event next year, and look forward to when we can all hop in our cars and enjoy the outdoors, together!

Stay safe, and we’ll see you on the other side of Summer for our San Diego British Car Day!
