In the United Kingdom the Brass era is split into two eras; the Veteran era and the Edwardian era. The veteran era includes cars produced before 1905. The Edwardian era includes cars produced between 1 January 1905 and 31 December 1918. This is considered pre World War 1 cars in the U.S. The Vintage era is considered to cover cars made between the 1918 ( the end of the First World War) and 1930. Post vintage cars are those made from 1 January 1931 to the start of World War 2 (September 1939). Antique cars are all cars made up to September 1939 which was the start of World War 2. Modern cars were made after 31 December 1959.

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“In the United States all business not transacted over the telephone is accomplished in conjunction with alcohol or food, often under conditions of advanced intoxication. This is a fact of the utmost importance for the visitor of limited funds ... for it means that the most expensive restaurants are, with rare exceptions, the worst.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“Illness is the night-side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
