More than 40 British-made cars, and one Volkswagen Beetle, occupied the front and side lawns of the historic Fort 91原创 Community Hall on Glover Road on Sunday, April 23, for the 19th annual St. George鈥檚 Day car show held by the 91原创 Area Mostly British (LAMB) car club.

LAMB president Linda Spouler explained the VW was covered by the 鈥渕ostly鈥� part of the car club鈥檚 name.

Spouler and her husband Harry, who live in Ladner, brought their beautifully restored 1950 Triumph Mayflower, rescued from a shop where it was being used for paint and bodywork practice.

Sometimes referred to as the 鈥渂aby Bentley鈥� for its resemblance to the legendary car brand, the Mayflower was far slower.

鈥淚t was made for three years, until they discovered that it was so slow, it couldn鈥檛 keep up with driving,鈥� Spouler said.

鈥淚t was only for English country roads.鈥�

This particular Mayflower has been modified with an engine from a Triumph sports car, 鈥渟o that it can at least go to 60 miles an hour now.鈥�

It was a range of new and old at the show, with classic sports cars sharing space with sleek modern rides.

Aldergrove鈥檚 Ian and Doreen Davidson-Newby brought their classic double-decker 1951 Leyland RTL bus, a perennial favourite at the event.

Doreen, in a period-accurate uniform with a 鈥渃onductoress鈥� badge, was greeting visitors.

Ian explained the bus was used in the film 鈥淭o Sir, With Love,鈥� then converted to a fully self-contained tourist office on wheels and shipped to Canada, where it was driven from coast to coast, before eventually ending up south of the border.

鈥淚t was sitting covered with moss in a yard in Edmonds, Washington,鈥� Ian recalled.

鈥淎nd the lady that owned it had, fortunately, run out of money before she had a chance to take the top deck [off], gut it and turn it into a boutique. Luckily, she never been able to get it running. We were, and we drove it home, and it鈥檚 been at every Saint George鈥檚 day in 91原创 for about the last 15 years as a British icon.鈥�
