LoL. I remember that day. Doesn't look so cool stepping out of the car with a map of Africa on your trousers.

Probably not, decided to keep things a little quieter this year on the car front. Dunsfold and Wilton House are the only things planned.

Bit OT but that yellow BB must be a Koenig? I hope so.

Weather was dry in Dorking on Friday morning. Slightly fewer cars this year but an Enzo made up for it and drew the crowds.
Have tried to add a couple of photos but the upload system doesn't want to cooperate.

A nice turn out today, liked the really old Maserati. A big thanks to V and L for the lift there. The good weather bought out a load of people so not that many shots from me I'm afraid as it was always crowded

Yeah it was really busy earlier, particularly around the Zonda - amazing in the flesh!

[delta037]

Nice photos RallyRider. It's the first time I've been to the Supercar day there and have to agree that it was difficult to properly photograph the cars in the streets.

[Dave_ITR]

I'm glad I payed this a visit as I really enjoyed it.

Kudos to the chap (I know he is on here but can't remember his name) that showed his Black 599, Zonda & Murci SV (my highlight of the day).

That'll be Peter Saywell
