MODEL T ROUND BRITAIN 2025

Plans are underway for 4 Model Ts to circumnavigate the UK in 2025. The intention is to repeat a challenge completed in 1925, visit a number of Ford dealers and cover circa 2,500 miles in the process.​​ In 1925 Ford completed this feat to celebrate the 250,000th British built Ford and set about visiting as many Ford dealers as they could.

​

FAQs

How do I join the trip?
Please submit this entrants form to the section coordinators as early as possible. They will then contact you with further information.

​

Why are you doing the trip? 

An equivalent trip was completed in 1925. The tour started from Trafford Park, Manchester and reached Portsmouth on May 5th. They stopped in London on May 8th and reached John O'Groats on 27th, returning to Manchester on June 6th. Please read more on the background, history and tour info in this Centenary Tour booklet, with thanks to Chris Barker for preparing it.

​

Can I join in a modern car?

Absolutely! We appreciate the distances are large and weather isn't guaranteed. Please show your support in any capacity!

​

How do I know where you'll be and when?

We'll publish intended routes and postcodes on this page, but on the day we may be forced to make changes to achieve time or overcome roadworks / mechanical issues etc. Each car will have a live tracker - please follow the link above to track the exact locations of the cars (accurate to approx 15 mins, and dependent on GPS signal!).

​​

What's the route and postcodes for waypoints?

Latest info is as above but here is a summary document for all waypoints, stops and helpful contacts in the area. Accurate as of 23rd March publish date. Round Britain Route and Waypoints Summary.

​​

What time do you start each day?

It is expected we will need some flexibility based on how we & the cars are doing! It is likely we set off between 7 & 8am every day.
