Hi Neil,
My boy expressed an interest in this, so I'll be coming too.
See you at Grand Prix in the morning,

Some fantastic eye candy there, but looking at petrol prices...mmm, I think I'll stick to the five.
At least I'll be able to afford to drive to these events.

Never seen a car display like it.

Got sick of taking pics, but here is a small sample - certainly doesnt do the day justice.

Thanks everybody who came for providing substance to our display. But for those who missed the greatest collection of vehicles most of us have ever seen in the one place we did not quite yet have the history of the Alvis, Allard, Bentley, Ferrari, Jaguar, Bugatti, Rolls Royce and the names can go on and on.

I have never seen anything like it and my legs are still sore from the walking.

For those who did not attend the sight of vehicles in their thousands displayed along the start of the main straight to the karussel plus all of the pit area and ground covering the complete inner area of the track minus the eastern loop was amazing. Then you had the spectator cars outside the track and some of those were not bad either.

If you owned an e type jaguar it could have been a commodore as there were that many of them compared to the really rare machinery.

In summary car lovers heaven

Cannot wait for next year as I predict it will be bigger now it has been conducted on these grounds.

Somehow the venue just didn't do it for me. Don't think the standard or variety of cars was as good in previous years.
