Classic Ford

ON ANY SUNDAY*

DRIVE IT DAY 2022

When: Sunday, April 24

Where: Various locations

Every year Drive It Day is held on the Sunday nearest to April 23. Why? Because in 1900 the RAC Thousand Mile Trial started in London and passed through Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, travelled through Scotland, then more English locations until they were back in London again. These days, the Federation of British and Historic Vehicle Clubs’ Drive It Day takes place every year to help raise awareness of the large and important extent of the classic vehicle movement in the UK. There are loads of events happening all over — shows, runs — it’s a day to share and display these great motors. Find out more: http://fbhvc.co.uk
