Have to say I spotted yesterday afternoon a lot of older Italian metal on the M25 heading Northbound, wonder if there's an historical Lambo event going on?
I did not walk the full circuit but sadly did not spot any Bugatti's or Saleen S7 /Molser MT900s
I know there rare but things normally come out to play when the weathers nice

This ^^^^ 100%.
I kept imagining whoever had won the £71 million on Friday was wandering up and down going,
"That's nice, I'll have that one...... no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one...... no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one......no that's nice, I'll have that one......,"
Basically until his head exploded!
Of course a quick bit of maths when he got to the F1GTRs and he would realise to buy both of those would take close to half his winnings..
How much are F1 GTRs then? Surely not £15m a pop?!? I kept imagining whoever had won the £71 million on Friday was wandering up and down going,

Nah, think somewhere in the £5-7m should cover it. Though quite why you'd need 2 is anyone's guess. Do love that Lark car though. I think the sister car was also for sale a while back. IIRC the hierarchy is Road car > GTRs > LongtailHurst/Peleton to confirm

I was hoping to see a Noble M600. It's a hit and miss kind of day. You never know what has or will arrive.I did not walk the full circuit but sadly did not spot any Bugatti's or Saleen S7 /Molser MT900s

Most of the F1's are now being sold out of the light of the auction houses and from what I have been led to believe have been going for quite extraordinary prices for some time now.

I am sure somebody will be around shortly to fact check me (flemke? the gentleman on here who owns the Lark car?) but basically if you have one of the GTRs its not far off.

They are certainly going north quickly and upwards of £8M nowMost of the F1's are now being sold out of the light of the auction houses and from what I have been led to believe have been going for quite extraordinary prices for some time now.

Thanks
It's a good event for sure but 15000 is too many. I was glad I was late and way at the end of the track as just a bit too many general public getting up close
It's a good morning but I'm beginning to prefer quieter events. Nice that people with mega exotic bring to show so people get to see them but it's impossible to get a proper look or chat with owners on a day this busy

IIRC a road car sold at auction last year for about $8mil. And of course there is the red one that DK sold to/sourced for a PH'er very recently
What a great event it was today, I was just wondering if anyone happened to get a picture or video of my TVR Tamora, was in the public carpark but drove past the main gates a few times, and saw a lot of people taking pictures/videos, its a bright orange car and made most others sound quiet.
