Default Concours d'elegance - Loads of awesome cars - new pics added

This was such an amazing day! A Concours in my home town, many many great cars! Mainly classics but some modern stuff as well...
How about a Bentley with a Rolls Royce Merlin engine? (yes the engine the Spitfire and P51 Mustang warplanes used!)
Or a Bugatti T35C loosing a wheel while driving?
Most ridiculous sounding car in the world?

Some videos first, I'll upload about 260 pics over night!

First, a hilarious sight of a vintage Bentley driver, it's just the hairdress, glasses, face expression and the way he drives... He makes me think of the prof from Back to the Future, LOL
http://rapidshare.de/files/4689857/B..._fool.mpg.html

A Bugatti T35C, thats an 8 cilinder in line engine! Great wheelspin together with a fabulous soundtrack there!
http://rapidshare.de/files/4690611/T35C.mpg.html
And then the next run went wrong... Just lost a wheel! Damage wasn't too bad though, probs fixed by now...
http://rapidshare.de/files/4690766/T35C_crash.mpg.html

Here's the Bentley with the Merlin engine, as you see it ran on half the cilinders while it was smoking that bad. The others fired up about 3/4 on the way LOL you can see the huge flames out of the exhaust pipes...
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691036/M...ntley.mpg.html

This has gotta be the shittiest sounding car in the world, agree? Coulnd't hold my laugh
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691332/Fart_cabrio.mpg.html

Here's a Bugatti T37, very nice little car. Check out the bunny hop when it starts, LOL
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691406/T37.mpg.html

Wonderful sound from this Maserati A6 GCS!
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691442/Maser.mpg.html

A Talbot racecar, 6 cilinders. Funny looking dude at the wheel...
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691522/Talbot.mpg.html

And 2 fast runs from a Spyker C8 Lavoilette, great car isn't it?
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691560/Spyker.mpg.html
http://rapidshare.de/files/4691600/Spyker_2.mpg.html

Can't wait for tomorrow! Day 2... More vids the of course. Please be patient for the pics!

I'm interested, but was waiting for the pics.

What a lovely event, the cars are nicely spaced and hardly any people around - perfect.

The blue Miura looks stunning - can't remember seeing many nicer ones then that. The Daytona Spyder is also cool, thanks for all the pics.

May me I'm the only one... but I love the Mondial Cabrio! And the Renault Spider... A very nice selection of cars, definitely a GREAT event! And the pics ate just superb!
FINALLY SOMEBODY LIKES THE MONDIAL T!!! I like Mondials too, but only the 3.2 and T versions. They look so evil and 80's!

It wasn't too cold, just a bit early... I was actually one of the first to enter the terrain!
