There's plenty of great pics there Batgirl, thanks for posting. I'm getting to appreciate many more of the yankie motors these days and do like the two red C2 Corvettes, particularly the '63 split screen, as well as the Camaros. Looks like another great event. Sam.

Great pics Batgirl, thanks for posting. I do appreciate watching a parade like that, so good to see them running and just how much work the driver has to do on the really early stuff! Keep 'em coming, I'm looking forward to seeing the next batch. Sam.

Thanks Batgirl - nice mix of British, and Italian classics there with a few Americans, the Mustang GT 350 and Chrysler convertible, and a French one with the Bugatti.
Interesting that Fiats have a following in Australia, with the ultra collectible Fiat 131 Abarth, and 124 Spyder (Italy's MGB rival and probably a better handler) and couple of nice early 70's Italian supercars, the Maserati Indy and Lambghini Uracco (I think).
The land of the rising sun's representative is that little metallic green Datsun Silvia. UK didn't get that model of the late 60's, we got the later pop up headlamp Silvia in the 80's.
Lovely to see those priceless 30's Rollers and Bentleys!

Motorclassica 2019 Outside the Exhibition Buildings different car clubs exhibit on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Lorbek luxury cars always have an impressive display of modern super cars outside. This year I decided to go to the after 5pm entry on Saturday as my day time has been booked up and busy. I have been going to this show since 2013 so I thought I'd try this experience. They promoted it as a good alternative to avoid the crowds and enjoy a glass of sparkling wine while wandering amongst the displays. It was true that there were less crowds inside but the majority of outside car clubs leave at 5pm. It felt a bit posh walking around with a glass of wine but I definitely prefer an early start at this show in order to see the outside displays. So firstly outside displays and inside tomorrow. (It just takes so long to upload from phone and camera) I really like Lamborghinis. I don't know why. I just do. They are the exact opposite of everything I admire in a classic but they got the Wow factor for me. These Minis didn't have to leave with the car clubs. They sort of reminded me of 'The Italian Job' Minis hiding.
