ClassicarGarage Newsletter 51, September 30 2010 |
|
|
From September 17 until 19 we visited the 'Goodwood Revival meeting' in England.
It was a beautiful event and the races were absolutely fantastic! Excellent drivers were fighting, pushing and racing to finish first! Some drivers had their 'moments' sliding into the grass, touching an opponent, or just escaping from serious damage... It was thrilling from start to finish. Also very special was the public 'classic car parking', we never saw more special and beautiful classics gathered at one time! Only watching all the parked classics would cost more than a day! Below you will find links to the 'Full HD' video's we shot during several spectacular races, Enjoy! We also tested and photographed new arrived classic cars lately. On the Scheveningen Boulevard (near The Hague) we photographed an impressive, recently restored, 1959 Facel Vega HK 500! We also drove two delightful Austin Healey's through the Dutch scenery including a masculine and rugged 100/4 BN-2! Last but not least we present five beautiful Jaguar cars which show a piece of Jaguar history from 1954 until 1992.
Sincerely,
Marc Vorgers. Click the photographs to view the photo reportages immediately!
