#30 Works Cooper-Coventry Climax 1097cc (Ivor Bueb). 'Still a new thing at this time'

#49 Lotus MG Mk VIII (Austin Nurse). Almost certainly SAR5, the original Colin Chapman Mk VIII, which he sold to Nurse at the end of the 1954 season, in which it was easily the fastest MG powered 1500. In 1956 it was purchased by Roy Bloxham - who shunted it at Mallory Park, after which it lost its tail fins and turned red.
