EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the rugged hills of Beggars Roost in Devon, England, during the summer of 1934. The image captures a thrilling moment during the Mid Surrey AC Barnstaple Trial, where a magnificent Lancia Lambda is seen competing against nature's challenging terrain. With its sleek Italian design and powerful 2570 cc engine, this vintage car exudes elegance and strength as it conquers the steep uphill climb. Driven by the skilled rally driver Bill Brunell, vehicle registration number AYT545 proudly adorns its exterior. The picturesque countryside of Exmoor serves as an awe-inspiring backdrop for this intense motoring event. As dust swirls around the wheels and exhaust fumes fill the air, spectators marvel at both man and machine pushing their limits amidst such rustic beauty. This photograph not only captures a moment in automotive history but also symbolizes determination, resilience, and triumph over adversity. It represents an era when motor sports were about testing one's skills against nature rather than commercial gain. Preserved within the archives of the National Motor Museum, this image stands as a testament to Britain's rich motoring heritage. It reminds us that even in simpler times, there was no shortage of excitement or passion for speed on these winding country roads.
