EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting era of 1930s automobile culture. The image captures a moment during the Mid Surrey AC Barnstaple Trial, held at Tarr Steps in Exmoor, Somerset in 1934. In the center of the frame stands a magnificent Singer Le Mans, proudly displaying its registration number AKX230. This vintage beauty, with its non-standard headlamps, exudes elegance and sophistication. To the right of the Singer Le Mans is an equally impressive MG D type from 1931. Its registration number JO3333 adds a touch of British charm to this classic open 4-seater car. With its standard features and timeless design, it perfectly complements the picturesque surroundings. The setting itself is breathtaking - a rustic clapper bridge spanning over River Barle amidst lush greenery and towering trees. The idyllic lane leading up to this scenic location adds to the sense of adventure that motoring enthusiasts must have felt during rallies like these. This photograph not only captures two remarkable automobiles but also transports us back in time to an era when driving was more than just transportation; it was an exhilarating experience filled with passion for speed and exploration. It serves as a reminder of our rich automotive heritage and ignites nostalgia for simpler times when roads were less crowded, allowing drivers to truly enjoy their journey through beautiful landscapes like Exmoor's Tarr Steps.
