An English Jaguar Club with 70 cars and 120 participants from England, Scotland, Wales, France, Holland, Belgium, and Luxembourg arrived at the Santa Monica Pier on Friday, October 10.

The final leg of their extraordinary trip culminates this Friday as they drive from Las Vegas to the Santa Monica Pier, where all 70 vintage cars and their owners will be welcomed in a celebratory reception.
