2014 Great British Car Fayre

Saturday, March 29, 2014

The British invaded Alpharetta over the weekend. Well, sort of. The Great British Car Fayre came to the downtown area with around 100 makes and models of British driving power. Rolls Royces, MGs, Jaguars and some, more exotic, automobiles adorned the streets for the morning and afternoon. Although the rain fell shortly before noon it didn’t stop hundreds of car lovers from walking the streets to get an up close look at some vintage British driving machines.
