The Brighton and Hove Motor Club, established in the early 1900s, was a hub of excitement and passion for automobile enthusiasts. The club's annual motor rally held in Brighton, Sussex in 1930 showcased an impressive array of vintage cars that left spectators awestruck. One standout vehicle was the Salmson owned by Mrs. PJM Midgley. Its sleek design and powerful engine made it a force to be reckoned with on the rally circuit. Another eye-catching car was the Alvis driven by Henken Widengren, exuding elegance and sophistication as it glided through the streets of Brighton. Amongst this gathering of automotive marvels was also the Wolseley Hornet saloon belonging to DEM Douglas-Morris. With its charming appearance and impeccable craftsmanship, it turned heads wherever it went. Kitty Brunell's Bianchi saloon added a touch of femininity to the event, showcasing both style and substance. Mrs. JW McClintock proudly displayed her Triumph saloon at the rally, demonstrating that women were just as passionate about automobiles as their male counterparts. Meanwhile, Mrs R Gough's MG 18/80 captured attention with its sporty allure while Bill Brunell immortalized these stunning vehicles through his artistic talent. A Rolls-Royce 40/50 graced the event with its regal presence, epitomizing luxury on wheels. Paddy Naismith's Standard showcased reliability and durability during its journey from John O Groats in Scotland to join this prestigious gathering. Donald Healey's Invicta high-chassis tourer stood out amongst others due to its unique design features that combined comfort with performance seamlessly. HP Powell's Amilcar CGS3 demonstrated speed and agility during thrilling trials organized by B&HMC throughout the 1920s. Lastly, an Alfa Romeo competed fiercely against other participants in one such trial; its power emanating from every corner.
