This year the Austin A30/A35 Club are celebrating their 50th Anniversary and have once again  invited us to join them at their annual rally and anniversary celebrations. This event is something special as it will be held over three days: 3rd, 4th and 5th July 2026. We are welcome to attend all the festivities over all three days. As before, it will be taking place at Inn on the Park, Deanland Wood Park, Golden Cross, Hailsham, East Sussex, BN27 3RN.
