British Car Week is an annual British car driving awareness week for promoting British cars on a world-wide basis. Participants don't need to travel very far for this event, because it takes place in their own community. This is a calling for all owners of classic British cars to get together with other car owners in their own communities and kick tires, tell stories, answer questions, and have a good time.

Best of all, you'll have the chance to show your car off to the general public who rarely, or in many cases never have the opportunity to get a real life close up glimpse of these extremely interesting automobiles of days gone by.

If you're a British car enthusiast reading this, think about how you originally became interested in your favorite British car. Chances are, you caught a glimpse of one and it quickly swept you off your feet. Later, you somehow managed to aquire one, and from that time on it has provided you with a lifetime of fun and entertainment. If you had not experienced that opportunity, you wouldn't have known about the car, and would not have gotten bitten by the famous British car bug! Since these cars have become very rare on the roads today, it takes a special effort to create awareness for the general public. If you're a British car owner/enthusiast that has what it takes, then WE WANT YOU!

British Car Week is all about providing opportunities for potential enthusiasts to become aware of older model British marques, and hopefully generate interest and enthusiasm among the the next generation who can enjoy and maintain them for many years to come.

If your local car club staff doesn't have anything listed on their calendar during May 31 to June 8 this year, then maybe they need to become aware of British Car Week.
