Lovely sunny day for it, and lots of cracking cars - XJ220! Mclaren SLR, lots of NSXs a 911 GT3 RS etc etc

Quite a few S2000s in the poor mans car park too!

A few of my piccies from today:

There are plenty of worse ways to spend a beautiful Sunday morning in early June!












Bonkers Spyker:





And just as bonkers Atoms:





Oldie but goodie (but bloody ugly!)



Yes, I know they're Porkers, but the colours are pretty!:




F40 - one of 2 in attendance and probably re-sprayed at some time as there was no sign of carbon weave through the paint:








Wild and I suspect, somewhate rare, De Tomaso







A good number plate (though I really dont like this new fangled bright orangy-red so mny new Ferrari's are painted)

I saw F355RED a few years ago and thought it's definitely the way to go with a personalised plate on a Ferrari.

I've not noticed Ferrari red that close recently but has the change followed the colour of the F360CS which was the colour they paint the F1 cars so that they look the "proper" colour on the telly?

Thanks for sharing all the photos guys. I'm just a bit gutted that I only remembered about this event at 10:30 on Sunday morning I'd have loved to have gone.

Yes, I remember reading something to that effect (Jaguar 'green' and Jordan Gold both had similar problems with the TV rendering and had too be tampered with).

I also recall that Ferrari messed about with the tone of red used on the race cars to better suit their then title sponsor Marlboro.

Whatever the case, neither is a good reason to blight road cars with the same nasty cheap-looking colour.

It was a great day. I left home at 06:20 and got there for about 07:40.

My few photos (before my blinkin' flip batteries went flap ) are here

Favourite car there for me? Prob the F40's followed by the Carrera GT which looked stunning in black.
