CA7C offers something for every member, whether they are a lanesman who likes to
get wild in the countryside,
a static rally fan who enjoys displaying
their 'Seven', or a tinkerer who can’t live without the
smell of hot oil and the feel of spanners - it is all available for the
Seven enthusiast.
Members also support local summer shows and
the Annual Rally of several up-country Austin Seven Clubs.
