I've finally Downloaded my photo's from my camera to PC.!
I originally was not going to go to this show (..due to my Dad's illness and ..Lack of funds.!)
..But a couple of day's before the show .. I was contacted by a friend from another great car related site... Edwin Storm (http://storm.tocmp.com/) ...who collects car brochures/ads (..I've contributed to his site.!)
Anyway ..he said he was coming to London ... and I eventually said yes to meeting up with him & going to the show (..He's from Holland ..and a note to Antoine ... he say's he lives only 5 miles away from Belgium.!)
It was a great day out (..and good to meet someone with similar interests.!) ...the new venue was very good also (..Better than the old Earls court I think ... as it's set out properly ..in nice rows.!)
..Lot's of New cars to see ..including concepts... Here's some pics:-

I do not see pictures. But are there any good Fords? There is a 1985 Ford Tempo brochure on his site!

..this (..and the Mustang)are the only Ford's worth looking at.!

Nice pics Steve , thank's ... seems there were some good designed concept cars, but my 1st dream would be a Ford GT :love:

Meh, I like the HUMMER best :wink:

I'll take the C6 (Citroën, not Corvette :tongue:

)

07/08/2006 @ 22:50:33: dwd4X4: London Motor Show 2006

The C6 is a decent looking car, but the front fascia is a little unproportional.

Et moi la blanche au milieu (Auburn?). Même si je préfère l'Auburn noire... :lol:

..I've nothing against the GT (..good car.! :wink:

) ...but out of the pics i've added ...I think i'd have to go for the Shelby cobra daytona
(...what a great sound.!)
Have you seen the Autocar (magazine) test to find the fastest production car in London.? (it's quite long at 25mins ..but worth watching.!) ..GT and Shelby feature in it.! :wink:

..for some reason..aston always seems to have trouble when trying to prove their cars.! (..I remember when they first showed the Zagato in the 1980's ..with super-fast claims ... but on test day ...it broke down ..and had to be towed away.! ..a great shame.! :smile:
