I'm not sure if I got the name right, but it is a wide body Audi TT by ABT, Its very very rare in the UK, and I saw it parked in the carpark today as I was leaving Goodwood Festival of Speed (I might post my event pictures from there too tonight).

and now I am home, I have spotted an M5 in the pic too, but I didnt see it then
And just as I was driving out, this beauty drove in, so I stopped and stuck the camera out the window :P , its had a tough life, and it bottomed out here, you can see the dip he just came down!

That Audi is interesting, but I don't think its a car I'd buy, but looks like a high quality job at least. Too bad about the M5, I noticed it too, and was wondering why you didn't have pics of it...then read your post, haha oh well. ;)
How common are the Noble's in England?

The carpark of the Goodwood FOS is already very interesting, I'm looking forward to the pics you will post of the festival itselfs.

It's a Noble M400...you can tell it's one of the more recent 3.0L models by the faired-in headlights (the 3.0 was launched originally with the M12 GTO -- 2.5L -- front clamshell and open headlights)...and you can tell that it's the M400 because of the flared side-scoops...the M12 GTO-3 and 3R don't have that characteristic.

Cool!
As for the car park, I am sure there were many more nice cars, so I hope you got pics!
And can't wait for the event pics too :good:

Even better than that the very same car was in the Buyer's Guide in evo magazine a few months back :wink:

There were a lot of nice cars in the car park, however, once I had started driving, there was no-where for me to stop easily to take pictures, and most of the cars I saw from a distance (BIG car park!!) and wasnt close enough, but here are a couple of others I did see:

i'm still inside the M25, but only just, I live near a town called Esher, the big landmark area for car enthusiasts for me really is Brooklands and McLaren (Woking), also, I live in the village where AC Cars first designed and made the AC Cobra, but that building no longer exists :(
so no, I dont live in Brighton :P but kinda close, its easy to get to
