(Collier Collection@The Revs Institute, photography by Peter Harholtd).
Collier Delage
By the time this issue of the Bulletin goes to press, we should have Miles Collier’s Delage on display
at Brooklands. It will be staying here for a short period following its appearance at Retromobile in Paris, also attended by our Delage. The car is also expected to visit Montlhéry and Goodwood so, as with all exhibits, please check in advance that the car will be here if you are making a special trip to see this visitor from America.
‘Babs’
Lastly, ‘Babs’ has been spending the winter months here. Hopefully you managed to see her this time but we hope to welcome her back soon. Please keep an eye on the website for news of guest vehicles.

We also liaised with Historic England structural engineers inspecting the condition of our rare ‘Bofors’ anti-aircraft gun tower and Competitors’ Tunnel entrance in December. In addition, we helped our curators re-organise the contents of the Vimy Pavilion by repositioning the Vimy and other large exhibits to create a new temporary display as well as dealing
