1933 MG KN Special

This car is pictured at McLean's Corner during a practice session for the VSCC Historic Seaman Trophy Race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2007.

It's Anne Templeton in her 1933 MG KN Special which is based on the running gear of the 6-cylinder inline 1,271cc MG KN Magnette, but has a 1,500cc engine and a zoller supercharger. The car behind is another MG, the MG Q Type of Tom Dark which has a supercharged 850cc engine. Only 8 examples of this car were built  and this one seems to be the only one with this type of body. It appears to be the car that was driven in the 1930s at Brooklands by Doreen Evans where she lapped the outer circuit at over 114 mph.

Note 25 Aug 2020: I've been told that Tom Dark's car isn't the one that Doreen Evans used to drive, but I couldn't find any contemporary photos o that car.

Wolseley Hornet Special

These two cars took part in the 'up to 3 hours' long Pre-War Sports Car Team Relay Race at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2004.

They are both 1934 Wolseley Hornet Specials, the one on the left owned, according to the programme of the event, by J A Seber and driven in the race by Mrs Anne Templeton, and the one on the right owned by T A Lovett and driven by John Seber. The Wolseley Hornet Special was produced from 1932 to 1936 with a straight-6 single overhead camshaft engine of either 1,271cc or 1,604cc, and DSJ 515 has the 1,604cc engine but the programme shows JSV 774 to have a capacity of 1,680cc. There's a Wolseley Register for owners of all Wolseley cars and a Wolseley Hornet Special Club specifically for owners of that model.
