Bumped into this rally/show at the local shopping center where we were staying in Tenerife this weekend. Nice surprise and Mrs and Miss Blade sighed and went off to find somewhere to sit down wink

Everything was Spanish and the cars were very clean (as you see) so how much "rally" there was involved, I'm not sure. Some of them have certainly been very rally prepped and not just the ones I might have expected, either!

Any how, I got the camera out and without too much further comment (as I'm not well qualified for commenting in this forum!), for your delectation:






Check out the high quality numbering on the Merc smile





















No idea at all what this one is:













Also no idea if this is an original or a replica (there's a lot of money about in places around there)... it looked damn good! I tried to take a pic through the window in case that helps anyone tell.














And that's the lot! Enjoy smile My time cut a bit short there by 2 whining sun baked girls....

Some lovely metal there, it must be nice to have a classic in a warm climate instead of rainy Britain!

It was obviously a regularity rally, so outright speed is not important. Its all about navigation and completing the timed stages in the time required.
Warm weather always makes this kind of rallies more fun.

here's my 7 on a rally in Mykonos, Greece.
