The April Jaguar Breakfast Club was the sixth anniversary to the exact day of the this hugely popular event. With the sun in the sky, a large concentration of XJ40s on the lawn, the very first lightweight E-type on display and the buzz of young drivers in classic cars driving a circuit in the adjacent car park, there was so much to see and do.

The British Motor Museum had stepped up efficiency with an additional entrance for advance ticket holders and enhanced catering facilities, ensuring there were no queues despite the many hundreds of eager visitors.
