More than 350 cars dating back from the 1930s and down to our day took part in a vintage car parade in front of the Alexander Nevski cathedral in Sofia.

Vehicles from the times of “socialism”, as well as classical models form the US and Western Europe took part in this 31st edition of the parade. One of the highlights was a 1951 Austin Princess.

“At the parade we can see cars any collector in the world can envy – in terms of value as well as restoration work,” commented Kristian Zhelev, chairman of the Bulgarian Retro automobile club.
