Ladies Automobile Club, circa 1904

November 11, 2024 By pete

Probably the most famous car on the run, the 1904 Darracq two seater, 2 cylinder 10 HP ‘Genevieve’ entered by the Evert & Quirina Louwman, driven by Quirina Louwman.

Story and photos by Jonathan Sharp

The 2024 London to Brighton Veteran Car Run included a celebration of the 120th anniversary of the founding of the Ladies Automobile Club. A special prize was awarded to Andrea Holden who was driving a 1902 Thomas specially imported from Australia for her to drive. This was indeed something special and we found a good deal of information about the Ladies Automobile Club in the event booklet, which we impart in part below.
