Hi there,

I know its from a show so its not strictly in keeping with this thread but I thought the sight of 14 Aston Martin Valkyries together would be appreciated by people reading this thread.

Taken today at Salon Prive in London.

Prefer the white Countach in the distance!

Agree with that.

your Countach yours for about £800K iirc

If that's the black Countach I'm thinking of, I drove that back from an MOt station once.
Was quite an experience.

This looked smart yesterday in South Oxfordshire. Obviously an awful photo!

For me, these later Countachs are a bit of an eyesore, like sticking a moustache on the Mona Lisa. LP400 was jaw dropping, stunning in a way few cars before or since have been.

I have to disagree there. The Lp400 through to the QV were a lovely evolving creation and i can absolutely understand the global poster icon it became. Though I was never a fan of the anniversary models. I just felt they were trying too hard and the automotive styling industry had moved on.
Still my dream car but prices were always just beyond my reach....damn it!

Very brave parking choice!

Sadly no photos, but a yellow BMW M8 Competition on the M1 near Northampton today.

the zero rear visibility plus massive wooden pillar combo is scaring me

[raceboy]

I'm more shocked at a Lambo having a front number plate fitted, and not just that, a legal size/font, although it doesn't appear to be actually registered.

You can’t have everything.

AND just for you my good man





Saw this beauty today at the Loh collection. Absolutely stunning place and I can't praise its exhibits high enough. Simply stunning and crammed with some of the rarest most beautiful cars ever created. Lots of original race winning cars too. Just stunning.

A few more for good measure. Possibly the best public car museum in the world
