Vintage Revival Montlhéry 2019 - Plateau F - Austin Sevens and friends

1926 Salmson VAL 3/7
Plateau F at the Vintage Revival Montlhéry 2019 contained many interesting cars including many varieties of Austin Sevens.  Lovely to see all of the pre-war cars on this historic French banked circuit that hosted so many important races and record attempts over the years since it was inaugurated in 1925.  Some of the marques seen in this plateau, such as Salmson raced here in that first season!   Other marques represented such as MG took part in many record breaking attempts here.  An Austin Seven Ulster took part in a 24 hour Montlhery record run in 1928.  Thus this plateau really gave us much bto celebrate the Autodrome's rich history.

My favourite car of this Plateau was this lovely 1936 Austin Seven Single Seater.
