In pictures: Vintage cars rally departs Lincoln

Austin A7: Vintage cars depart Lincoln on an annual journey to Cleethorpes, flagged off by the Mayor.

More than 50 vintage cars departed from Hartsholme Park in Lincoln on Sunday morning on an annual journey to Cleethorpes.

In a city tradition, the Mayor of Lincoln, Councillor Kathleen Brothwell, flagged off the Pre-War Austin 7 Club cars.

The cars date between 1927 and 1937 and went on a 114-mile journey to Cleethorpes, stopping off at a few locations on the way.

The club also celebrated its 50th year and 90 years of the Austin Seven cars.

Here are The Lincolnite‘s photo highlights from the very chilly morning at Hartsholme Park.
