Local club member Chris Ward said: “We had a great day at Woodland Waters in Ancaster.

“The sun shone on all the highly polished cars, mostly Jaguars but any make of car was welcomed. There was almost every type of Jaguar, from SS100 and E type to the new F type sports and the latest F pace SUV.”

They had around 150 cars on the day. The Best in Show award was won by Peter Cremer, with his Alfa Romeo Guilietta Spyder. Also attending the show was the Best in Show winner from the Stamford Car Show held the previous weekend, a Jaguar E type V12 owned by Chris himself.
