There doesn't seem to be a general topic for MPH pictures so thought I'd start one. Hope you like them

Very nice photos, i could spend so long looking at your gallery. I got some nice pics (for me) But the lighting wrecked some of the pics.

Cheers for the compliments guys.
A good eye, steady hand and a decent camera all help make a good pic, and photoshop does the rest

They were amazing, as brave as hell. For me, they were the best bit of the show

definitely impressive - though I was lucky enough to see a similar show in china when I was there - try watching it with 10... my heart was properly in my mouth

also did anyone else feel the show was a bit smaller this year - I went on the gala eve as last years was really good, but this year just seemed to lack something for me... just a thought anyway

This was my 3rd MPH at the NEC, but my first as an exhibitor!

Unfortunately not many of them as I forgot my camera most days.


The Gumpert was involved in an accident on the way to the show, it moved inside the covered trailer it was in and the carbon rear wing and supports cracked. Ouch!

It was really interesting seeing behind the scenes and speaking to manufacturers and of course the TG team in down time when it wasnt busy and people could spare the time. We stayed at the Hilton which seemed like the hot bed for nightlife after the exhibition doors closed. TG team were propping up the bar till the early hours most nights, the stunt drivers were fair putting a few away aswell!


We ended up giving away some free clothing to Richard and, top bloke that he is, wore it in the shows at the NEC.


Had a really good conversation with Chris Marsh of Marcos and now Farbio fame, and it was a delight to find him so down to earth. I really like the Farbio in the flesh and its obvious theyve been working hard to rid the car of the foibles that you normally associate with low volume cars. Fit and finish was pretty impressive. Hopefully expect an Edinburgh dealer soon!


The TG team really are a good bunch, but I really didnt envy their position, hordes of folk followed them everywhere. Clarkson rose from his chair in the bar to go for a fag, sure enough the rest of the bar followed. But it did lead to some hilarious moments, Clarkson rugby tackling Hammond through a crowd of female admirers with bingo wings screaming "Ill save you hammond" and offering to shag one of the male stunt drivers in the show in the ear due to the excessively large ear rings/hoops he was wearing!

Have far too many stories to tell!

Big thanks must also go to the Rio Prestige team for their hospitality and Bill for being the most filth mongering, illiterate millionaire Ive ever met (read only).

Already booked for next year, cant wait!
