Here are some of mine, I've tried not to repeat cars so there are a few odd-ball cars here....

I was staggered that this fantastic car was left in the public car park, roof down...






That is one of the seven. It used to live at Bramleys when it was a proper car showroom. The story I heard was that the owner was offered over a million for it about 10 years ago. What the hell was that doing in the public car park?????
Is this a real one or a replica ? I had a very good look at it - but none the wiser...
It's real. As I mentioned {and I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.)only seven genuine factory built RHD Daytona Spyders were made. This is one of them. There were a lot conversions done in the late eighties and early nineties (I think most by Autocraft??) due to Miami Vice but this one is the real deal.

I think it's a testament to the calibre of people that these events attract, that you can leave an incredibly rare and very valuable Ferrari lying around like that and no-one touched it.
+1 to that. It's why we all love Goodwood so much. Lord March treats his guests as adults who know their stuff and therefore everyone 99% of the time behaves themselves.

I think the Miura left fairly early which is why some people might have missed it. Mind you I missed the Zonda and Alfa 8c, I think your brain just gets over loaded with all those beautiful cars.

It was originally in the queue for entry but peeled off at the RR roundabout and, I assume, then took the back way round to the public parking rather than continue queuing to get in the main gate. Some of the older cars were having trouble with overheating in the queue so it was probably a wise move.

Did exactly the above in the Cerb... blinking dodgy fan switch meant a quick detour to Sainsburys for a top up and turn on the fans manuallysmash. All sorted but didn't fancy tempting fate again.

Not the greatest pics, but here a few of the more classic cars that were on show:


(I've got a real soft spot for these 400/412 Ferraris)




(Same goes for the 308GT4)











It was a good morning, but it did get pretty busy!

It's the first event that's killed my photobucket account bandwidth, so that says something.

Has anyone got any pictures of my red GTO by any chance ? Was parked in one of those squares of cars, between an old 911 and a white R8.

Not had a chance to do any real processing on them yet and loads more cars I didn't photograph as it was so crowded and tbh I was just happy looking at them all.
