About us

A global community of enthusiasts

Enthusiasts of British Motor Vehicles is a non-subscription Facebook-based group founded in 2014. We are dedicated to the enjoyment and celebration of classic British motoring.

​Our worldwide membership is more than 29,000 and growing. Despite being only 5 years old, we won the Lancaster Insurance Sponsor's Choice Award at the 2019 Classic Car Show - plus we were shortlisted in the National Car Club Awards two years running for, "Outstanding Use of Social Media" in 2016 & 2017 then again in 2018 & 2019 for "Outstanding Online Presence by a Car Club". We were also shortlisted in 2018 for "National Car Club of the Year".

We are unusual among online groups in that we also have a lively "real world" side to our activities with group meets at a number of top-class events and venues. These include Group stands at the Practical Classics Classic Car & Restoration Show at the NEC in the Spring of 2017 2018 and 2019 and the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show at the same venue in November 2017, 2018 & 2019.

​As if that wasn't enough, there is also our club driving tours to various beautiful locations around Britain.
Unsurprisingly around 70% of our members are resident in the UK, but 30% are based overseas and the proportion is growing. The USA, Australia, India and the Republic of Ireland make up the top 5 countries represented with Malta, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka and Canada completing our 'Top 10' and clearly demonstrating that there is interest in Britain's motoring heritage all around the world.

​For enthusiasts of other motor vehicles

If your motoring interests are broader than British pre-85, you may enjoy our sister Group called Pre-Millennial Motor Vehicles, which covers all motor vehicles (British and overseas-produced) built before the year 2000.
