Standard Register 1903 - 1930

Standard1903-19302.jpg

Founded in 1959 by the late John Davy to record the existence of, promote interest in and encourage the use of Pre 1931 Standard, Avon Standard and Standard Swallow Cars.

Becoming a Member:
Open to all pre 1931 Standard cars.  The Standard Register has never charged an annual subscription, the mere ownership of a suitable car making one eligible for membership.

Future Events:

Beaulieu Spring Autojumble weekend 19th - 20th May 2012
Once again, I have book a Club stand at the Spring Autojumble.   Come and visit us on Stand R411.  It is hoped that we will have the 1910 Standard model G 30 H.P. Cabriolet on display.

Gordon Bennett Rally - Ireland , 8th - 10th June 2012
Following a break in 2011, once again I plan to lead a party of pre 1930 Standards to Ireland for the Gordon Bennett International Rally, as organised by the Irish Veteran and Vintage car Club.  Already, the owner of the 1912 Brighton Torpedo (which is an Irish registered car) has already indicated that it would like to participate and I would like to thank the owner  for his kind invitation to join him on his car.  Other entrants are always welcome and advice on Ferry Crossings and accommodation can be given to those interested.

Standard Motor Club  53rd International Rally  (Friday 20th June - Sunday 1st July 2012)
Once again, the Standard Register has been invited to participate in the Standard Motor Club International Rally, which will be held at Horwood House Conference Centre, Little Horwoood, Nr Bletchley, Buckinghamshire.  Further details and entry forms from the Standard Motor Club web site

Standard Register weekend - 3rd - 5th August 2012      "The Welsh Borders Rally"
I am pleased to announce that I have booked The Dragon Hotel at Montgomery, Powys.  This is an AA 2 star hotel on the Powys/Shropshire border and it is hoped that we will be able to fill the entire Hotel.  Further details and entry forms have been sent to all regular entrants.  Early booking is essential as availability of accommodation can only be guaranteed until the end of April.  Visits on the Saturday will include Stokesay Castle and Acton Scott Historic working farm.  Fresh entrants with suitable cars are most welcome, please contact the Registrar and ask for an entry form.

Standard Register weekend - 2nd - 4th August 2013   "A Cotswold Caper"    Cirencester, Gloucestershire.
2013 marks the Centenary of the introduction of the model S - Standards' first entry into the light car market, and their first model produced by volume production methods.   I have booked the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester for this important milestone event and I hope that this might produce the largest number of model S survivors ever seen together in one place.
