Went to the Motorshow today, and apart from the hour long tube journey, and the blistering heat, a good time was had

few oi my fave pics below for your perusal, (be gentle with your photographic comments, we've not had the camera long and I'm not that good) will post up some more when I'm not feeling so lazy

liking the new rearward facing exhausts on the sag, and the new bonnet looks a bit more substantial (sp)



Speed 12


AM Rapide (dunno if thats the right spelling or not)


Stealth GT


cant remember what this was called


one for the mini lovers


arty 300sl


awsome looking Barabus


no words needed


and an arty yachty one to finish



have to say though, was very disapointed to see this!

apparently the orgainsers told Noble that once the car was out of the show they wouldn't let it back in
More to follow

Nice pics Matt. There doesn't appear to be many folks about in the background either. Were you there dead early or was it just not very busy.

BTW, McLaren F1 (just don't tell Annie you saw one or she'll never speak to you again, which may be a bonus actually! )

Matt, top pix. Hard to believe the Gullwing is 50+ years old!

it was it top condition too, quote of the day was the woman that walked past it, turn to her other half, and said ' I like that, it looks cute'
I'liked the way they put the SLR together with the SL too
