Recently there was a meeting of the Jaguar Daimler Club Holland. There the pre-war 'SS' Jaguars were the center of attention. Jaguar was called Standard Swallow, SS early in its existence. After the war, the 'SS' was somewhat sensitive in terms of marketing. We reported about this before.
Gallery Aaldering was the stylish basis of the party
And the 'SS' models shown there were impressive in number and beauty. Swallow has traditionally been more bodywork maker than car maker. And there was a time when the cars were known for the fact that they looked faster than they were driving. That story ended with the SS series. But for SS Jaguar owners it is no longer about pure speed. That is why the well-arranged tour was also pleasantly touristy.
A very beautiful area
Add to that the fact that the Gelderse including the other side of the IJssel is a very nice area for the partners of the drivers. There are the Lalique museum in Doesburg and Venema Antiques in Drempt. We give you the ride thanks to the JDHC:

Nearby are Doesburg and Bronkhorst (Municipality of Bronckorst ') is worth a visit. And Gelderland is almost teeming with classic specialists. In addition, there are also very few who are making progress such as Auvergne Classics in Velp, a company that sells 'invisible classics' such as Talbot Horizons and Renault 6sen.
