Amongst the highlights in the car park was a pristine VW Golf MK II which was finished in a lovely shade of green. My eyes were constantly drawn to the abundance of other Hyundai I30N's in the car park, (roughly 9 including mine). After getting decidedly giddy just parking around the car parks, I practically bounced into the actual show. The first cars that I noticed were the 4 Mclaren 675LT's (YES, 4!). The Diablo SV that I managed to miss at Salon Prive, was also parked up next to them, as was a blue Porsche Carrera GT that really stood out from the crowd. A late arrival came in the form of a Noble M600, which sounded incredible, this then proceeded to park up besides a previously hidden Murcielago LP-640. Once we'd had a nosy around the supercar area and the hangar, it was once again time to position ourselves by the exit to see everything leave.

For those of you who have never been to a Collecting Cars meet before (I can't imagine there's many), the primary focus is on Porsche, and this was evident in the ratio of them to other cars, which was about 1:3. Everything from a rattle-canned Boxster, to a dreamy 996 GT3 RS rolled out of the show, with other gems interspersed between. If you haven't already worked out, my taste in cars is very varied - from muscle cars, to classic rally cars, to 00's uber-saloons, I appreciate, and have tried to purchase the lot. In this respect, I was in my element with an E92 M3, an Audi Sport Quattro and a rusty Ford Galaxie 500 fulfilling those briefs (what a tumble the Galaxie name has taken right?) 

​

The long flat airfield made for some great photos, coupled with the nice weather and the very pleasant gentleman who flew his plane into the show from a nearby village (massive flex points), it was a great day. Definitely a place I would recommend to visit, and certainly a place I will be back to very soon.

​

Right, I'm off to look at classic Golfs and green Dulux paint - Cheerio!!
