No pictures?

Your just taunting us aren't you  :P

I went to the classic card show at the NEC in Birmingham a couple of years back with my lad, there was some cracking motors there.

Only thing I missed was the chance for a spin in a Dodge Viper (damn I want one), but it was worth it just to get near it and listen to its sweet purring as it idled in and out of the bay  :)

Although it was a classic car show, there were a few non-classics there.  Some really nice American muscle cars, Bugatti Veyron and others.

Thats pretty decent insurance for a new(ish) Mustang and 28mpg isn't all that shabby when you consider whats under the hood of even the small engined ones (same as I get from my 2.0l CDX Omega  ;D ).
