A few pics from Te Papa's F1 exhibit which Iain and I wandered along to last night:









There's about a dozen cars in total and lots of history in the wall exhibits. They screened the documentary 'Trio at the Top' about Mclaren, Hulme and Amon in the 60's and 70's which I hadn't seen before. All in all a good night out - well worth getting along to.

Wandered past Te Papa with the kids this morning - they had a display of about 10 Ferrari's outside, from old to the 599 Fiorano - very nice. My boys were in overdrive just pointing and going "car, car, car" (they're only 20 months...) Will go back then I have less kids and more time.

I guess I am a bit spoiled living near-ish to a Ferrari showroom. In the last year I have 2 Enzos, an F40, a 288 GTO, 430 Scuderia, 612, 599, and all the latest Maseratis. Across the road I have browsed amongst a number of Porsches, including a Carrera GT. The Lamborghini showroom is only ten minutes away as well.
