The e-type can only wish it was this beautiful (or this rare, the only one I’ve ever seen)

Nice track ready e30 hiding away at Goodwood - pretty certain it was there last year too?

So LR knew how unreliable their cars were - they even gave you a Defender tow truck with your first Defender purchase!

Apparently Z’s do shrink in the rain

As always a great meet and nice to catch up with everyone despite the weather (we did manage BMW HQ to Goodwood top down all the way though).

I ended up doing the tunnel solo (which wasn’t so bad as I could actually hear my car for a change =)))

Great pics mate, glad you all managed some roof down driving :thumbsup:
 
Damn that 507 is gorge.

Thanks for sharing the pics
 
A great day and the weather was not too bad. Missed a few showers but still managed to get the roof down from BMW HQ to Goodwood. The photographs on the grid were great just before the heavens opened.

Thank you to all that came along and I hope you enjoyed the day.

A few from myself from todays fun.

Another cracking day despite the weather. Big thank you to Paul once again , BMW UK and Goodwood. See at the next one
 
Great pictures, thanks everyone for sharing. Hopefully we can make the journey south for next year.
 
I could only get to the Goodwood part but nice to get a picture of mine on the grid.

@Alan Slade , @chrissyboy and I went for a coffee in the control tower and found everyone had gone when we got back. Was hoping to see @Lee as I had the prototype straps with me and would have welcomed his input but hopefully catch up at a later date.

We followed Alan out and after 3 laps of the circuit managed to find the way out:whistle:

Hi Mazza. I came to find you after being on the grid. Did everyone end up in a cafe?

Lee
 
I think it was just the three of us (plus wives) in the new control tower cafe.
 
Looks a good day even allowing for the weather. Great photos all:thumbsup:
 
Taking pics of the man taking pics :snaphappy:

No hanging out the back of safety car for photographer this time but they did wheel out a ladder (a wooden one at that too, Lord March must have special dispensation as I though wooden ladders were banned under modern elf and safety regs o_O)
 
A great day out again, lovely to meet up with new and familiar faces. A few pictures of the day
