1 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run 2016 Press Information Celebrating the triumph of the automobile 25 October 2016 The annual London to Brighton Veteran Car Run (LBVCR) is set to take place on the first Sunday in November as it has done since The rules state that participating vehicles must have been built no later than The resulting line-up gives participants and spectators an unforgettable glimpse of the early days of the automobile. This year's event will mark the 130th anniversary of the invention of the automobile and will pay tribute to Gottlieb Daimler and Carl Benz, who both independently completed their first vehicles in Mercedes-Benz Classic will be taking part, entering a 1902 Benz Spider and a 1903 Mercedes-Simplex 40 hp in the anniversary Run on 6 November One of the drivers will be Eddie Jordan, former racing driver, motorsport manager and Formula 1 team owner. Stuttgart. Britain's 1865 "Highway Act" was an idiosyncratic and highly restrictive piece of legislation, stipulating that the top speed for self-propelling vehicles was not to exceed a walking pace of 6.4 km/h (4 miles an hour) or a paltry 3.2 km/h (2 miles an hour) in built-up areas. It also specified that someone had to walk in front of the vehicle with a red flag to warn other road users, a restriction that remained in place until This allowed little room for technological progress. In 1896, exactly 120 years ago, the most serious restrictions were lifted: the speed limit was raised to 19.2 km/h (12 miles an hour), and the red flag was no longer insisted upon. On 14 November of the same year, this relaxation of the law was celebrated with a spontaneous "Emancipation Run", the participants driving from the capital, London, to the coastal town of Brighton, around 96 kilometres (60 miles) away. At the start of the run a red flag was symbolically torn in two. The first official commemoration of the "Emancipation Run" took place in Since then it has been staged every year, with the exception of the period between 1940 and
2 1947. This makes the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run the world's longestrunning automobile event and at the same time the biggest gathering of veteran vehicles from the early days of motoring history. In addition to four-wheel automobiles with a combustion engine, the race also features three-wheelers, steam-powered vehicles and electric cars. Since 1930 it has been controlled by the Royal Automobile Club (RAC). Page 2 In 2016, almost 620 vehicles from around 20 countries are set to take part in the Bonhams London to Brighton Veteran Car Run supported by Hiscox as it is now officially known. It will start at 7.04 a.m. (sunrise) on Sunday, 6 November 2016, and is just one element of the Royal Automobile Club's London Motor Week, a seven-day celebration of motor-powered vehicles, which includes an art exhibition, lectures and a motoring books awards evening. One of the highlights will be the Regent Street Motor Show on Saturday, 5 November 2016, a free event which will feature many of the veteran vehicles set to take part in the run to Brighton the following day as well as a selection of contemporary vehicles. The invention of the automobile 130 years ago Mercedes-Benz Classic's participation in the 2016 Run commemorates the invention of the automobile 130 years ago. In 1886 Carl Benz was granted Patent DRP for his Patent-Motorwagen in Mannheim, and at almost the same time Gottlieb Daimler was completing his motorised carriage in Cannstatt near Stuttgart. This initial spark shaped the future of mobility and gave rise to the success story that continues to this day. Mercedes-Benz Classic is bringing two vehicles from the company's collection to the starting line in London. The first is a Benz Spider dating from This sporty model with front-mounted engine marks the transition at Benz from classic motor car to modern automobile. The vehicle that will feature in this year's run was delivered to Ireland in 1902 and was in use there for over 30 years. It was acquired by what was then Daimler-Benz AG in Given its history, it is a fitting vehicle for Irishman Eddie Jordan. The former racing driver, motorsport manager and Formula 1 team owner will drive the Benz Spider
3 from London to Brighton. The Jordan Grand Prix team took part in 250 Formula 1 races between 1991 and Its line-up included well-known drivers such as Michael Schumacher, Ralf Schumacher and Hans-Harald Frentzen, all of whom also have links to Mercedes-Benz. Page 3 The second Mercedes-Benz Classic vehicle is a Mercedes-Simplex 40 hp. At the end of March 1902 it superseded the legendary Mercedes 35 hp, which had marked the end of the carriage style that had dominated the industry and is thus considered to be the first modern car.
4 The Mercedes-Benz Classic vehicles in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run 2016 Page 4 Mercedes-Simplex 40 hp, 1903 The Mercedes-Simplex 40 hp was launched in March 1902, superseding the legendary Mercedes 35 hp. The suffix "Simplex" was intended to indicate how easy the new model was to operate for its time. Its direct predecessor, which was also the first vehicle to bear the Mercedes brand name, had become an icon as soon as it appeared: for the first time, in December 1900, it defined a distinct shape for the automobile and to this day is still regarded as a masterpiece of technical sophistication and beauty. Characteristic features include the long wheelbase, the light and powerful engine fitted low down and the honeycomb radiator integrated organically into the front end, which was to become distinctive for the brand. The Mercedes 35 hp marked the end of the carriage style that had dominated the industry and is thus considered to be the first modern car. At the Paris Motor Show in December 1902, all of the other automotive manufacturers presented vehicles which followed the concept of the first Mercedes and bore a striking resemblance to it in terms of design too. In the trade press this show was therefore dubbed the "Mercedes Show". The new Mercedes-Simplex became a success in the world of motorsport from the very moment of its launch. The Englishman E. T. Stead won the Nice La Turbie hillclimb race ahead of Georges Lemaitre and Wilhelm Werner, both also driving 40 hp models, and was even able to improve on Werner's record from the previous year. The 40 hp models were also highly successful in the Mile Race, achieving speeds of more than 100 km/h. Delivered in March 1903, the white example from the Mercedes-Benz Classic collection is one of the oldest-preserved Mercedes-branded vehicles. In the past it
5 has taken part in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run on several occasions, completing its first outing there in November Page 5 Technical data - Mercedes-Simplex 40 hp Cylinders: 4/in-line Displacement: 6785 cc Output: 29 kw (40 hp) at 1100 rpm Top speed: 100 km/h Benz Spider, 1902 The Benz Spider, like the other vehicles from Mannheim built between 1901 and 1902, marked a change of course at Benz: the transition from classic motor car to modern automobile. The Benz automobiles produced up until the start of 1901 followed the classic concept developed by Carl Benz which featured rear-mounted engine and belt drive. Due to the tremendous success of the first Mercedes from the then rival Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, which defined the modern automobile in 1901, the solid and reliable Benz motor cars were suddenly no longer deemed sufficiently contemporary and sales declined. The company Benz & Cie. subsequently decided to develop a completely new model range which was introduced from the autumn of 1902 under the name Benz Parsifal and which in many respects corresponded to the basic design of the first Mercedes. In the transitional period from 1901 to 1902, alongside classic models such as the Comfortable and the Ideal, Benz also built new vehicle models such as the Elegant, Phaeton and Tonneau with front-mounted single-cylinder or two-cylinder engine, integral radiator and gear-only transmission. The Benz Spider was a sporty variant from this model series with front-mounted engine. The vehicle from the Mercedes-Benz Classic collection was delivered to Ireland in 1902 and was used there for more than 30 years. During the Second World War it
6 was hidden beneath a pile of coal, and after the end of the war was restored and took part in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run in In 1969 it was acquired for the vehicle collection by what was Daimler-Benz AG at that time and was subsequently used numerous times to take part in the legendary London to Brighton event. Page 6 In 2014 the Benz Spider was carefully restored and was also given its original dark red paint finish which it had retained in one or two hard-to-reach areas.
