2024 British Car Day – SAVE THE DATE…

The British Car Club of Charleston is pleased to announce the 39th annual British Car Day, on October 19, 2024, at Palmetto Island County Park in Mt Pleasant, South Carolina. The featured marque for this year’s British Car Day is Sunbeam, and cars of the Rootes Group, with special recognition of the 60th anniversary of the Sunbeam Tiger.
150 vintage and classic British cars are expected to fill the show field on Saturday. Well-known marques like Triumph, MG, Austin Healey and Jaguar will share the field with other rare examples of Alvis, Aston Martin, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Lotus, Morgan and more. This popular event draws exhibitors and spectators from all over the mid-Atlantic and Southern states to take part in this amazing display of automotive art and to enjoy the fabulous fall weather of the Lowcountry.
For those looking for more to do while in Charleston, the BCCC is offering a drive and lunch through Francis Marion National Forest to Hopsewee Plantation near Georgetown on Friday October 18th . This well-preserved, historic plantation offers rich culture, architectural significance, and connections to prominent figures in American history. Tours of the plantation are available, and the onsite restaurant offers delicious examples of Low Country food.
