In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1929, where Riley Monaco of CD Allen is seen fearlessly competing in the prestigious Sunbeam Motor Car Club Bognor Trial. The vintage car showcased here is a magnificent Riley Monaco ca. 1927 with an impressive engine capacity of 1089 cc, registered under the number UL4726. The event entry number 222 belongs to none other than driver C. D. Allen himself, who skillfully maneuvered his way through the challenging course. This remarkable display of motoring prowess earned him a well-deserved second-class award at the Sunbeam M. C. C. Bognor Trial on March 3rd. Surrounded by lush countryside and towering trees in a serene woodland location, this snapshot captures both the beauty of nature and the excitement of motor sport in one frame. Spectators can be seen eagerly watching from various vantage points as they cheer on their favorite rally driver. Bill Brunell expertly captured this momentous occasion with his camera lens, immortalizing not only CD Allen's triumph but also preserving a piece of British automotive history for future generations to admire. This evocative image transports us back to an era when classic cars ruled the roads and rallying was at its peak. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rural life, there were those who dared to push boundaries and embrace adventure behind the wheel of these iconic vehicles.
