Comments (3)STUNNING TVR sports cars made for an impressive spectacle as they travelled in procession through York.
More than 200 of the cars descended on the city for the "Big Northern Gathering" - the TVR Club's national gathering for the north of England.
Regional organiser Richard Abbott said: "We met at the racecourse for an informal gathering and a large procession of about 120 cars made its way down Tadcaster road and onto the A64, and ended up at the Yorkshire Air Museum at Elvington."
Examples of all 12 TVR models were included in a line up at the event, which featured about 200 vehicles.
Cars from as far afield as Essex, Cambridge and Suffolk all descended on York for the get-together.
Mr Abbott said: "It's the second time we've been to York - the forst was in 2005 - and we would like to thank the city for its hospitality."
