There were some mighty fine cars there.

Got back earlier today, went yesterday and stayed in a hotel overnight, was a great weekend

 

[Niall]

Thanks Charlie!

And yeah there were Dan, I was starstruck almost seeing the only road legal TVR Cerbera Speed 12, that thing is ultra rare and hugely fast; a real hall of fame car.

was in a dealers a couple miles from my house, went and had a look at it thing is stupidly cool, needs to be plugged in to the mains for a hour or something to circulate and warm the oil before you can start it

Great work mate, The lighting was piss poor in that place!

 

[Niall]

Yeah it was Riad, the bright blue and red floor doesn't help either. I was using flash for some of the shots to try and get some lighting on the car.

 

[v15ben]

Some really nice shots, especially with how shite I imagine the conditions in there are for photography!
Nice crisp detail shots and some cool ones of the rear lights on the 991!

 

[Canary172]

Great pictures! The lighting was horrible and made the Clio Trophy look a bit brown!

Seeing the Speed 12 there was a great surprise - what a monster! The only other time I saw a Speed 12 in the flesh was at the motorshow back in the late 90s. Looked something like this:


Just a show car maybe?

 

[Paul.M]

Ive got a walk round video of the engine out of a speed 12 before being dropped into a car, I'll try and get if off the other computer for the fans on here.

I went to autosport on saturday, was a great day out as usual.

Your pictures came out miles better than mine, in fact mine were pretty shocking tbh

Shame trophy 001 had some VERY badly repaired front end damage !!

Yeah. We all spotted that straight away. It's a shed tbh.

Been crashed twice iirc

 

[Kyle 86]

Haha has it really

 

[Niall]

Where would it crash? I thought it wasn't driven anywhere?

It did have the signs of being crashed though.
