Aston On Sunday a few of us attended this event. I have been before and was amazed how many supercars attended.
We had to meet very early at Thurrock services for the drive down to Goodwood. We had to be there by 8.30am so we met at 7.00am to get there earlier enough. as I was filling up I got a call from Bryn and Steve who was waiting in the carpark so we decided to meet up on the exit and leave straight away.
We had a great drive down in the sunshine with the roof off, and arrived after 78miles by 8.20am, we then had to queue to get in which took 15min as it was so busy.
We were guided onto the Goodwood Race track, and drove through the Tunnel giving the car a good blast, then we would line up along the starting grid. it took 10 mins of driving through all the parked supercars to find a parking spot. Crowds of spectators lined the route and were taking photos of us. Kids were saying to the dads cor its a Tvr, Its amazing that they were very interested in our cars which cost a fraction of most of the cars on show.
We then spent 3 hours walking around some of the most expensive cars ever made. After seeing about 30 Aventadors and 50 Ferraris with a few Porsche Gt3 Gt2, Aston Martins inc a Zagato convertable v rare, Racing DB11, DB9, Vantage Gte, Bugatti Chiron Veyrons, lots of Maclarens inc a few P1s and several 720s. there was also a rare Maclaren Senna, finished in Carbon Fibre bodywork, only 20 of these were made at £300k each.
Amongst the newish supercars were a mixture of classic supercars such as Ferrari Daytonas, Gto's Lamborghini Diablo, Espada Murcialago etc,,even a Blower Bentley, and a few Tvrs
Great day out, in beautiful weather and some lovely cars..
