Goodwood Breakfast Club Supercar Sunday - 6th June 2010
Wow! I don't know what else to say! But here goes anyway...a truly spectacular array of vehicles, the perfect precursor to the Festival of Speed in 4 weeks.
While snapping an F40 and an XJ220, what creeps up behind me? A McLaren F1 GTR! The ex-Ralf Schumacher Japanese GT car no less! Moseying around for the morning
also revealed the now famous Pagani Zonda PS of Mr Saywell, a yellow Enzo, several Murcielago LP670-4 SVs, a brand new Ferrari 458 Italia (looking great in white),
a Countach, a Bugatti Veyron and a Grand Sport too...(breathe)...and then, mid-morning, a blue Bugatti EB110 SuperSport rolled in! Perfect! Never mind the numerous
Aston Martins, Porsches, Lotuses and a very menacing Skelta Spyder. What a way to end an early morning PistonHeads convoy! This has to be one of my favourite
albums to date. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did!
PS: Don't forget that photos can now be rated and commented on (subject to moderation), so interact and enjoy! If you really like a photo, why not send it to a friend
as en e-card? Or download it to use as a desktop background? Have fun!
Marcos, Bradford-on-Avon - 25th April 2010
A gathering to celebrate the 80th birthday of Marcos co-founder, Jem Marsh, was put on in Bradford-on-Avon last weekend. Jem and his son
Chris were in attendence, along with a dazzling array of Marcos cars. These ranged from the 'quirky' Marcos Mini to the mighty
Mantis GT. A whole host of colours and curves couldn't be dimmed, even when the rain swept over for half an hour mid afternoon. A
cracking way to round of a truly car-tastic weekend...happy birthday Jem!
Bristol Italian Auto Moto Festival 2010 - 24th April 2010
A gloriously sunny day and a cracking colection of Italian vehicles enlivened Bristol city centre's streets last weekend. Alfa
Romeo were the featured marque in line with their 100th anniversary celebrations, and a whole host of Ferraris, Lamborghinis and
Lancias (among others) turned up to support them. Some of my favourites included five gorgeous Alfa Romeo Montreals and a very unusual
blue Ferrari Dino 246 GT. Enjoy!
Goodwood Breakfast Club Family Favourites - 3rd April 2010
After meeting a convoy of fellow PistonHeaders in Guildford I arrived nice and early for this event. The weather cleared up nicely
as we arrived and held throughout the morning. Aston brought their latest car, the Rapide, for people's perusal, while the self proclaimed
'Earl of Marmalade' rolled a fabulous Lancia Delta S4 rally car out to wow the crowds! Overall it was a cracking start to my 2010 car events!
Aaaah...it's good to be back!
