There really was :) Really didn't know what to take a photo of next. Loved being near these amazing machines, I was very impressed with the concept cars in the flesh too. the quality was fantastic.

That must have been great for your friend having some of them as a wedding car too :)
 
I remember seeing the XK180 getting a hammering on Bruntingthorpe air field a few years ago, it was going well until a large cloud of steam spewed from the engine bay and forced it back into it's trailer.

Wasn't the Bond XKR a bit of a mash up? Seem to remember the drive train on the car used for filming on the ice was from a Ford Explorer :puke:
 
I'm droooooling - do they have the XJ220 there?
 
That is a cosworth racing engine most likely from a F1 car. You are correct! Great snaps!
