Vulcan pic is very cool. I saw the Vulcan last year, and it took me back to my childhood airfield trips - I remember being somewhere in Lincolnshire in the late 70s when it felt like the sky was full of Vulcans. Awesome. I love the fact that the person behind your car has their hands over their ears! - maybe your exhaust is blowing a bit?! hehe

Oh - and I think Nick Cansfield needs his eyes testing...

I've a feeling this has been posted before, but I quite fancy this as a bit of an unusual track day toy.

This morning I'm quite liking this



Is £9500 the going rate for these?
Seems not too bad - they are well screwed together inside and are very 'planted' in corners compared to the M3/Cosworth
I found myself working at Nardo this week. At the gate there is a big sign showing all the records for the circuit. The fastest to 10,000km, 25,000km and 50,000km was a 190E 2.3 set in 1983. Average speed something like 250kph, slightly slower for the first 25,000, guess they got quicker at servicing them.

lovely. I really like the subtle (at least compared to some) Martini stripes.

That 911 is lovely, but the stripes don't quite line up at the back of the door which would irk me.

Unusual choice of Martini Lancia!

Wasn't there a colector recently who wanted a Gulf collection of racing cars - this would be the cut-price road car equivalent!!! smile

I was just doing a quick search to see what the Martini stripes might look like on a red Integrale, and I found this:



I almost didn't spot what's unusual about that car. But when I did spot it, I was quite impressed!! Somebody must have spent quite a bit of time on that!

Pretty sure it's a die-cast having looked a little closer!


I was going for a sensible collection of cars for all purposes with all being white, turbo'd and with subtle yet enhancing martini stripes.
