Most of them are VWs. You’d have been right at home ;). Hard to believe really that a company founded by National Socialism’s labour union to give the people cheap transport has ended up where it is.

Oh everybody should have cheap transport like mine ;)

Whos is the blue 54 plate GT? I was sitting behind you in the queue on the M25 by the M3. Sounded great, you appeared to be bored ;) What’s the bee about?
That is me. I wasn't bored but in pain... sciatica. Had to rest/stretch at Cobham services.
The bee, symbol of where I'm from, Manchester. Europe's second city....second in Europa, second in Champ's league...

Think second is what we call first loser ;) We were in the OAP Merc estate, on our way to the in-laws in Kent for the wedding that may not happen. We need an estate as we had 19 bags

Did look lovely, what exhaust have you got?

Standard would you believe. I did do a launch for a bloke and his son in the traffic queue. I'm happy to educate the next generation that hydrocarbons and internal combustion engines are fun.

Great day and the weather turned out excellent in the end.

Like others have said I was amazed by the amount of cars and how many people have so many expensive cars. Not sure what that says but it was noticeably much greater than I expected or have ever seen before at any show.

That Muira was lovely indeed and amazed how many people didn't even give it the time of day. So many just wanted to look at Yianni''s wraps!

That Zenvo was a stunning piece of engineering and even the Chiron has grown on me.

Would have loved to been able to give the Chimaera some beans there but not sure I would want to do more than 120 in it!

Fantastic day and echo Deans comments.

I must admit I’ve been giving a F458 a bit of thought lately but I would say that Ferrari was the most represented car there, you could almost call them common.

There was a time they were a bit special, but it’s clear they are banging out models and sales are booming.

Just takes away the specialness off the brand imho.

Indeed. It was nice change when I wasn’t following a 488 onto the runway.

Events like this do tend to make even very special cars seem quite ordinary- no F458’s in my local high street this morning though ;)
