Capturing the Thrill of Speed - Rover Meteor Speed Twenty at the Mid Surrey AC Barnstaple Trial, Beggars Roost, Devon, 1934
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1934, we are transported back to an era when automobiles were a symbol of freedom and adventure. The image showcases a classic car - the Rover Meteor Speed Twenty - as it conquers the challenging terrain of Beggars Roost in Devon during the prestigious Mid Surrey AC Barnstaple Trial. The vintage vehicle, with its open tourer design and registration number BGC866 proudly displayed, is driven by none other than Bill Brunell. A renowned rally driver of his time, Brunell fearlessly navigates through the rugged countryside of Exmoor while participating in this exhilarating motorsport event. This snapshot perfectly captures both the beauty of rural life and the excitement that comes with off-road rallying. As we witness Brunell's skillful driving on this steep uphill climb, we can't help but be reminded of how these early automobile enthusiasts pushed themselves to their limits in pursuit of victory. With its monochrome aesthetic adding a touch of nostalgia to every detail captured within its frame, this print serves as a powerful metaphor for progress and determination. It transports us back to an era where cars were more than just means of transportation; they represented dreams realized and boundaries overcome. Preserved by Heritage Images for future generations to appreciate our rich automotive history, this remarkable image stands
