EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant era of 1930s Britain. The image captures the MG Magnette of RWG Collins, a true classic car enthusiast, as he proudly stands beside his prized vehicle. This particular moment was captured during the prestigious MCC Torquay Rally in July 1937. The MG Magnette N Type, with its sleek design and powerful 1287 cc engine, exudes timeless elegance against the backdrop of a charming English avenue. Its registration number NJ6991 is clearly visible on the vintage automobile's front grille. Collins' remarkable driving skills earned him not only recognition but also the highly coveted Premier Award at this esteemed rally. As he confidently takes his place at the starting line amidst fellow rally drivers and motoring enthusiasts, one can sense his anticipation for what lies ahead on this thrilling road adventure. This photograph by Bill Brunell beautifully encapsulates an iconic moment in British motor sport history. It transports us to a time when rallying was more than just a sport; it represented freedom, exploration, and pushing boundaries. Today, preserved within the National Motor Museum archives in England's Devon county, this image serves as a testament to both Collins' triumph and our enduring fascination with vintage cars and their rich heritage.
