Road & Track
The range of Mille Miglia cars plus sports racing, GT and saloon cars was equally
impressive, with some spectacular examples of wonderful automobiles, including a
monster 1930 Mercedes Benz 710 SSKL, a 1948 Nardi-Alfa Romeo Barchetta, Aston
Martin DB4 GT Zagato, the unique Ferrari 212 E Montagna, through to cars from this
year’s Le Mans 24 Hour Race. These were crowned by the winning Audi R8, which was
displayed in the paddock alongside the magnificent perpetual trophy awarded for three
successive victories with the same driving team. Also present were the Bentley EXP
Speed 8, MG-Lola EX257, Courage-Peugeot C60, and the GTS class winning Chevrolet
Corvette C5-R. The cars mentioned just being the tip of the iceberg of a diverse selection
of machinery spanning a large number of years. Then there was the Supercar group of
current road GT cars, that encompassed some of the finest sporting automobiles that
money can buy, including the new Ferrari 575M Maranello, Pagani Zonda C12S and
Bugatti based Edonis.
