Piston Heads Sudnay Service: Goodwood - 18th December 2011
Well, it's been a while, but rest assured that all is still well! There is much going on behind the scenes to bring you an improved
experience in 2012! In the meantime, here are 48 photos from a very cold morning at Goodwood with PistonHeads. An impressive turnout
of cars given how icy the roads were, including a white McLaren MP4-12C, a very dirty Ferrari FF and the only road-going Spectre R45.
I hope you enjoy the collection and have a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year! Roll on 2012!
Donington Collection - 25th August 2011
A slightly delayed report here from a wonderful collection of classics. At the end of August I dropped into the Donington Collection while on holiday to be greeted by
a seemingly modest sized building. What the approach to the building doesn't give away is how it twists and turns and goes back further than expected! There was hall
after hall of classic Grand Prix cars (with a scattering of lower formula cars too) including a whole row dedicated to Williams and an entire hall to McLaren! Sadly the
lighting was difficult, so some images were lost despite a monopod on hand, and a few cars such as the Maserati 250 F and Tom Wheatcroft's Bugatti Royale were not on
display, but this were barely missed as gem after gem uncovered itself: from classic BRMs and Vanwalls through Ayrton Senna's famous 1993 "that lap" McLaren from the
European Grand Prix at a wet Donington to the modern Williams and McLarens, turing each corner held more delights! I hope that you enjoy the images and that they inpire
you to visit! I cannot recommend it enough!
Wilton House August 2011 - 14th August 2011
Wow! What an amazing day to support the Stars Appeal in Wilton, near Salisbury. An astounding turnout of cars including:
Koenigsegg Agera, 2 x Ferrari Enzo, 2 x Bugatti Veyron, Porsche Carrera GT, Lamborghini Aventador, Pagani Zonda F Roadster and, my personal favourite, the unique
right hand drive Koenigsgg CCXR Edition. Stunning! Classics on display included a £2.4 million Ferrari 250 GT SWB, Bugatti Type 35B and an
Aston Martin Vantage V600 le Mans. A great day in great weather...I hope you enjoy the photos!
Castle Combe, Britcar - 23rd July 2011
Great fun in Wiltshire on Saturday. Formula Ford, Special GT, BMW and saloon support provided thrills and spills before the Brticar qualifying. Since the Formula 3 an
British GT were outlawed due to noise restictions these vehicles provide some of the quickest action on track during the year. The Moslers
still managed a reasonable rumble from the V8s and the new 458 Italia GT2 looked fantastic, being thrown around with one wheel off the tarmac
at times! It was nice to be back at the track, and I hope to head there more frequently in years to come.
British Grand Prix, Silverstone 2011 - 10th July 2011
An unexpected update here! Huge thanks to Andy Pass for donating these photos to the site! 86 great images from the British Grand Prix at Silverstone,
including a few from the supporting GP2 and GP3 races. If you didn't see it, go and find highlights on t'interweb somewhere...it was a cracking race, with action
right to the end, including (without giving too much away!) changeable conditions, a rogue wheel and two top 10 positions being seperated by only 0.024 of a second!
I suggest trying the BBC iPlayer, the official Formula 1 website or searching on YouTube. Thanks again, Andy!
