Goodwood Festival of Speed 2011

Some eye candy from the event...

Notable beauties... Immaculate Rolls Royce Phantom II Boat Tail, 1959 246 Ferrari single seater racer, Pagani Huayra with TT V12 AMG power now. 700 hp Brabus SLS and 800hp Brabus G series, Mercedes SSK, 300SL Gullwing, Hennesy Venom, 3 generations of the Ferrari GTO's to follow later, still only very few of the incredible stuff on display here.

If you ever find yourself in the UK during this event, it is an absolute must.

Huayra....

Interior is a work of art. Pity they gone TT - the N/A motor was awesome. Side mirros beautiful but hardly practical.... but then how could this car ever be practical?
