Some kind of Austin owners club meet I would have thought.
OK Old cars not really my bag but at a Guess 1st one is an Austin 7 2nd one is an Austin healy but not sure of exact model 5th one another Austin 7 6th one an Austin Maxi, triva fact, first production car with a 5 speed gearbox IIRC. 8th one that you describe as sounding throaty, looks like an MGA. Im not 100% I'm right mind...
