The Surrey Vintage Vehicle Society is an all-make club catering for enthusiasts who share an interest in Veteran, Vintage and Classic vehicles and who live in the South East of England. The Society was formed some 40 years ago and currently has some 150 Members who live in the areas of London, Surrey, Sussex and Kent. The Society meets very regularly throughout the year on the last Wednesday of every month.

Winter meetings, September through to April, are held at the 'Hand in Hand' on the famous Boxhill, (address Boxhill Road, Tadworth) not far off the A25 between Reigate and Dorking.

Parking facilities are ample and meetings are held in the large and comfortable function suite. Winter meetings are designed to be informative and always involve specialist speakers on all aspects of Veteran, Vintage and Classic travel and motoring. Speakers, with the aid of film, slide and video, have covered the histories of various Car makes, Buses, Commercial Vehicles, Fire Engines, Lorries, Bicycles, Motorcycles, Steam Vehicles, Tractors, Agricultural Machinery, Bi-planes, Commercial Aircraft, Military Aircraft, Helicopters, Parachuting, Fairground Engines, etc. Visiting Speakers from other Car Clubs also come to speak about their activities and Speakers come to tell of their interesting and unusual motoring/travel exploits.

Summer meetings are more informal and are held at various hostelries throughout the area. Generally there is one mid-month Sunday Lunchtime meeting and one end of month Wednesday evening meeting. Summer meetings are an excuse to bring out the cars and enjoy a reasonable drive in the countryside for a chat and a glass of pop with like minded enthusiasts. Additional organised events also involve group visits to transport museums and other places of motoring interest. The Society also provides group attendance's at various local Vintage car shows and car venues, and similarly involves wives and families on society group picnics.

The majority of S V V S Members are also members of other Clubs but regularly attend S V V S meetings because of the relaxed atmosphere generated by an all-make club rather than the more rigid disciplines of a one-make Club. Many Members are noted international specialists in the field of their own marque and some Members are also involved in companies specialising in manufacture and repair of historic components and vehicles. The Society has an active monthly Magazine with lots of articles and specialist contributions from many of the Members. A comprehensive Vehicle Register is kept by the Association and an updated copy is circulated regularly to the Members. Club regalia includes sweat-shirts, tee-shirts, stickers, badges etc.

Members own between them some 250 Historic Vehicles which include one or more of each of the following makes, and most of which are used on the road: AC, Alvis, Amilcar, Armstrong/Siddeley, Aston Martin, Austin, Belsize, Bentley, Benz, Berkeley, Calcott, CGV, Chrysler, Citroen, Crossley, Daimler, De Dion Bouton, Elmore, FIAT, Ford, Frazer-Nash, Galloway, Gwynne, Healey, HRG, Humber, Hutton, Jaguar, Lagonda, Lanchester, Lancia, Land Rover, Lea Francis, McLaughlin, MG, Morgan, Morris, Motobloc, Northern, Peugeot, Pontiac, Renault, Riley, Rolls-Royce, Rover, Singer, Standard, Sunbeam, Talbot, Triumph, Trojan, Vauxhall, Wolseley, . . . . . . as well as many Lorries, Commercials, Motorcycles and vintage Bicycles, and Aeroplanes.
