Some great cars there. To see them on the open road must have been quite a sight.

No it isn't, shame the word couldn't have gone around so a few more people could have been able to say this.
frown Maybe JKB will get them along to his event where everyone can enjoy them, and donate to charity in the process?

That looks as though the cars are leaving Donington Park, which isn't far from me at all. Why am I never in the right place at the right time frown.

What's with the Reventon front lights, flashing alternately?

My guess was that they're LED's so just appear to be flashing (they wouldnt be in person).

Yeah, dont recall them doing it on the day, and I was up close filming it. Will check the other footage to see if it does it on those too.

How much is a Reventon wing mirror? A new one will be needed if he keeps driving in the middle of the road! Nice vid mind.

Cheer up mate, not all events have to be in the public domain and this was a great event run by Supercardriver. This event was actually for charity thumbup

The nature of this particular event was private for owners only. However due to the success, we are looking into planning a public event as there is clearly demand for this smile

There is certainly demand, from enthusiasts like myself, but the only trouble is these public events are so popular once word gets round that access to the cars becomes limited, for photos, generall mingling with the owners etc and you end up lusting for the private intimate events, but catch 22 is only owners and thier mates get to go to those events!!

I only hope salon Prive does not lose its intimate feel once they make the move this year. Best of luck with your new public event but lets keep it amongst ourselves hey smile

As echo'd above some of the worlds most gorgeous metal on show and some very lucky owners.

I understand why an event like this would be kept private but if your looking to open this up to a wider community how would you communicate this? Your website, PH?

I wouldn't want to miss out and although i'm in Edinburgh and don't even have a standard supercar (although i'd feel the Z4MC is different enough) would be happy to drive down for something like this.

Very true, not much I can say to that apart from the fact that it would loose the intimate feel of the event which I think is one of the things which made it so good. Where else can you spend 5 minutes just talking cars to a guy who owns a Veyron Supersports? I know from Wilton that it wasn't quite as friendly unless you were a 'VIP' (no disrespect to Wilton as it's an AMAZING event, just different to this).

Agreed, but it's still nigh on impossible to get photos with no one in them and the parking skills of supercars leaves little do be desired wink

I'd hope that SupercarDriver does events like this in the future as well as public events. It was great because of what it was and IMO there is no need to change it when it ran so well! thumbup
