DK's open day was blessed with a welcome blast of Spring sunshine, and as a result netted a huge and varied turnout, old and new........

If that last pic isn't in contention for Pic of the week then there's something wrong there!

Great pictures and some great cars.

Blue car is a '61 250 SWB, last RHD car built, and the silver car is a series 1 PF Cabriolet - mechanically icentical to the Cal Spyder, but bodied by Pininfarina, not Scaglietti.

I took the liberty of shooting my new car with it, for an 'old and new' shot.....

The silver 308 is yours? It is a fantastic colour for it. Do you know if many were made in that colour?

Yes, just got it - silver with burgundy. I've no idea how many were made in that combination, but I'd certainly be interested to know.

Awesome, I followed that 308 back to London. Crikey that guy can drive, I dont think I've ever seen a ferrari pedalled that quickly before.

Beautiful pictures - Hope you don't mind me taking the liberty of pointing out a typo; presumably you meant to type 'old and older'
