The dates this year are Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th March and we will be based as usual
at the Metropole Hotel in Llandrindod Wells.

The Twenty Sixth of June  A reminder that we are all invited to the Vintage Minor Register's
Summer Rally in and around Milton Abbey over the weekend of 27th to 29th July.
Many LCES members have already booked, including John Warburton, Raymond Martin, the Bucks,
Kevin Lee, as well as all the usual Minorists and Minoristes,
but there is still room for more and the Section has also been invited
to enter a team of three Light Cars in the Navigation Rally Team Challenge on Saturday.
Would anybody like to step forward and Captain a Section team?
Full details of the weekend, including downloadable entry forms may be found here.

The Nineteenth of June  Another wonderful Summer Rally was had by all over the weekend.
Results may be found here.

The Eleventh of June  Details of our Autumn Tour and Driving Tests are now available here
and the Regulations and Entry Form may be downloaded here.
We are running this event as a double header with Madresfield the following day,
so why not make a great weekend of it in the beautiful North Cotswolds.

The Thirtieth of May  Don't forget our Summer Rally!
Entries close soon, and we could do with more!

The Fourth of April 2007  A fine weekend in Wales was had by all,
and we were spoilt with glorious spring weather.
Here are the results.

The Twentieth of March 2007  The Regulations and Entry Form for the Summer Rally
may now be downloaded here.

The Third of March 2007  It is with tremendous sadness that we have to report the passing of
Arthur Jeddere-Fisher.  Arthur was the leading light behind the Section and our President Emeritus.
He died on the 22nd of February and we extend our deepest sympathies to Marcia and the family.

There will be a Service of Commemoration for Arthur on Monday, March 5th, at Aston Rowant Church at 1.30 p.m.
The church is in the centre of Aston Rowant village near M40 junction 6.
Take B4009 from junction 6 NE towards Chinnor and turn left after 1 mile sp Aston Rowant.
Afterwards, there will be refreshments at the Lambert Arms, which is close to junction 6.
Take the B4009 back towards the M40 to the junction with the A40 and turn right on A40 towards Oxford.
The Lambert Arms is immediately on the left.
If you have any questions, please contact Peter Livesey on 01494/881453 or 07779/100343.
A map may be found here.

The Third of March   All VSCC and Light Car Section members are cordially invited once again to the
VMR’s Summer Rally - 27th to 29th July, based in Milton Abbas, Dorset.
The weekend commences on Friday evening with a Summer Ball at Kingston Maurward House.
Saturday is Navigation Rally day – a 60-mile exploration of Hardy's Wessex with suitable class awards,
ending with cream teas at Moreton village.  In particular, the Lewis & Nicholson Trophy will be competed for
for the third time.  This Vintage Minor/Austin Seven duel was narrowly won AGAIN last year by the Sevens,
so it really is revenge time for the Minors this year!  Other marque teams of three cars would also be most welcome.
Sunday includes a dawn run to the top of Bulbarrow Hill (the sun rises at 4.47 a.m. precisely!), a morning run to
Lulworth Cove and the weekend culminates with a magnificent Vintage Garden Party at Milton Abbey.
Full details including accommodation options and downloadable entry forms may be found here.

The Second of January 2007  The Regulations and Entry Form for the Welsh may now be downloaded here.
(You may have noticed that all the printed and virtual channels emanating from Chipping Norton
have the Summer Rally down as taking place in Presteigne.
We have no idea where they got this information from - it certainly wasn't from us!
Rest assured, it is still in Hampshire as advertised on this website and in our fine Bulletin.)

The Tenth of December  A small but wonderful archive of photographs belonging to our founder
Arthur Jeddere-Fisher and taken in the early fifties has been placed in the LCES area of the Grove Street
photo sharing website.  View the album here.  Captions will be added shortly.

The Fifth of December  Advance details of LCES events for 2007 are now available.
Details may be found in the Site Index below.

The First of September  The VSCC is holding a new event this November - a Cotswold Trial on Saturday 25th November.
Unusually, there will be a special class for LCES class cars - both light and Edwardian,
plus a class for newcomers, so let's see if the Section can put up a good show.
Download the Entry Form here and get your entry in quickly!

The Thirtieth of August  Madresfield this Sunday!

The Twenty Eighth of August  A Light Car Section account has been set up on the GroveStreet photo
sharing website, enabling images to be shared.   Check here for pictures of our Summer Rally.
