British Pathe Cine-world

[Carsie]

A couple of months ago I tumbled across the BP film collection which chronicled much of the company's exploits of which motoring and cars therein were aplenty. I forgot to post the details but this evening I came across British Pathe news.

I'll post the link but do warn you that if you're anything like me you'll instantly lose a couple of hours trawling through hours of Classics and Yesterday's Heroes.

To whet your appetite the following are just some of the clips:-

.Ascari - his unfortunate death
.TR3 Production line
.Falcon self build kit car
.Le Mans 1954
.Rolls Royce Farm 1964
.Lamborghini Jarama 1972

Enjoy and you can touch base again in a couple of months time when you've finished wading your way through them all lol!

It's a superb collection, search for your choice of car e.g Riley and be prepared to send hours watching some superb footage from previous decades.

The "Motor racing 1932" is Phoenix Park. The winner in the Mercedes SSKL is Rudolf Caracciola.

Be warned - you can disappear for hours into that site (I know I have), not just on motoring topics but all the amazing stuff on our wider industrial past as well.
