Popped along to this after work yesterday. Fantastic event and some astonishing stuff there.
Impromptu visit so only crappy phone pics but here are a few things that caught my eye.

AC Frua 428. Only the second one I've ever seen in the metal. Superb!



Couple of early Cooper S Minis. First with appropriate plate. Second has genuine works Monte history (and looking very original).





Dino 246 GT and Ferrari F40



Sublime Iso Grifo





And then another. This one a Series 2. One of 17 built of which, like this one, only 3 RHD. Car of the day, for me.



Glorious Ferrari 275 gts. One of 19 RHD.





Definitely on my wish list! Maserati Khamsin.





Not sure what this is. But looks good fun.



Ferrari F50



Lastly, lovely 3.0 CSL.



Great event!!

Was that going past the {something} Arms pub by the mini roundabout?

Hman, not sure as too far away but two bikes that seemed to be together enjoying(!) the moment.

Jon, thanks for the info and most interesting. Not the only XI there either, if I remember correctly.

Alex, I didn't see the Bentley rep, unfortunately but there were a few pre war bentleys there, I think. I agree about not segregating the Marques. It is the eclectic nature that gives it it's charm. Bit like the pre 74 car park at goodood revival. Last year I saw a gt6 next to a 275 gtb and I couldn't decide which I liked more......
