British Motorcar Day is an annual gathering of all of the British Car Clubs in the Atlanta, Georgia region. The event is now in its thirty-nineth year from its beginnings with sixteen cars in Grant Park in 1984. The show quickly outgrew the Grant Park venue and was invited to move to Chateau Elan in 1985 where it stayed until 2005 and grew to include over 500 cars.
If you appreciate the classic designs of British automobiles you won’t want to miss the largest gathering of these fine cars in the southeast. Approximately three hundred examples of these machines and about 2,000 spectators will converge at City Hall in Roswell, Georgia for what has become one of the best automotive events of the year. Every major example of British car is usually well represented from the elegant Rolls-Royce to the rugged Land Rover. See hundreds of examples of all of the great marques that defined sports cars for several generations; the MG, Austin Healey, Lotus, Triumph, Morgan, Jaguar, Sunbeam, Jensen, Aston Martin, TVR and those flying shoeboxes, the Mini-Cooper.

1958 Porsche 356 Speedster
The 1958 Porsche 356 Speedster marks the swan song of one of Porsche’s most iconic and minimalist models.

With its low windshield,…

1948 Rover P3 Saloon
