Vintage cars thrilled fans of all ages at a city parade.

The Winchester MG Owners Club hosted its seventh annual Classic and Sportscar Parade on Sunday as part of the Heritage Open Days festival.

The cars set off from St Catherine’s Park & Ride, circled King Alfred’s statue on the Broadway and parked in Busket Yard for a public display.

The mayor awarded rosettes to his favourite cars, with Lionel Kay’s black MGB roadster taking first place.
