Over 800 vehicles in Ipswich to Felixstowe Classic Car Run

Sunday marked the 54th Felixstowe classic car run with cars, buggies, motorbikes, military and specialist vehicles on show.

A wide range of transport could be found at Christchurch Park before departing to Felixstowe around 12pm.

The convoy was diverted through Kesgrave due to roadworks.

Among the participants was Cancer Support Suffolk boss Mark Murphy in his orange beach buggy.

He said: "I'm having great fun.

"I've watched it ever since I was young, and so to take part in it is really great. I watched it as a child, and now to have a car in it is absolutely brilliant."

Mark Smith, chair of the trustees at Ipswich Transport Museum added: "It’s been a fabulous day out and I’d like to thank all the vehicle owners for supporting the event with such a magnificent turnout. I’d also like to like to pay tribute to our amazing team of volunteers who organise the whole thing for The Museum - it’s a truly unique spectacle and we are very proud of it."
