The sun shone for the annual London to Brighton Veterans run

Almost 400 vintage cars appeared for this year's Bonhams London to Brighton Veteran Car Run, 120 years after the first running of the event.

Originally called the Emancipation Run, the car run was first hosted in 1896 to mark the raising of the speed limit from 4 to 14mph for 'light locomotives', which also abolished the need for a man to walk in front of the vehicle waving a red flag.
