Bentley has a long standing association with Brooklands so what better reminder for the Brooklands Motoring Festival this weekend than this stunning shot of a classic Azure doing what it does best.

Titled 'The Double Twelve' this is only the second year of the festival which incorporates a Concours d’Elegance as well as number of tests taken from the JCC Rallies of the 1930s. These include Test Hill, Steering Test, Wiggle Woggle, Parking Test, Quick Start and Half Mile.

I'm intreaged to know what a 'Wiggle Woggle' test is?


Not impressed with the picture, I'm gonna be keeping the Audi TDI Le Mans car for my desktop for a little while longer it seems

I think it would have been better with a Zonda or something in that particular shot

"The car must be driven forwards, do a three-point turn, drive a “figure of eight” around two markers, drive forward and do another three-point turn before driving to the finish."

same here! the audi picture - and the flying citroen - have been the best two wallpapers IMHO, and so the audi remains as my desktop.

It is such a pretty scene.

If only they slowed down, stopped, turned their heads around, stopped sniffing the leather, and looked at it.

Maybe even if they got out and had a little walk. Oh I don't know.
