@Retromania4ever This is the one off Volvo P1800 fitted with a 2.5-liter, 4-cylinder prototype engine developed by Aston Martin (project DP208) to test a potential powerplant for other manufacturers. Producing roughly 151 bhp compared to approx. 100bhp of the Volvo B18 1800cc unit👍

@TibsGTE My 'lightly' modified 1100 Special at Oulton Park about 1990. A bit rough around the edges but I so loved that car. The one car I still wish I had.

@ElHadad7387 @ron_eisele Avia S-199 with the Junkers Jumo 211F inverted V12 engine and 3 blade VS11 propeller as fitted to the Heinkel He 111 bomber. Take off & landing was 'interesting'😬 The S-99 used the Daimler- Benz DB605 V12 engine until supplies dried up following a huge warehouse explosion ! 👍

The Wooden Wonder… ✈️ Built for speed, precision, and versatility, the “Mosquito” still turns heads wherever it goes. Just listen to those Merlin engines. Have you ever seen a Mosquito up close? 📹 Ig/ gracedwil #Airfix #DeHavillandMosquito #AVDaily #AVLovers

It's easy to forget the impact the E36 M3 convertible had upon launch, back in the day. Looks just as sexy now. This handsome machine has now had its SMG pump replaced, roof fixed, and running faults sorted. Time to drive!

@JamesMelville I've been obsessed with the 1962 Ferrari 250GTO since I saw one at Oulton Park when I was about 15. Now I'm 60 ! There are many beautiful cars, particularly in the 250 series; but there is something so special about the '62 bodied 250GTO 😍👌

I’m my opinion, the most beautiful car ever made. The classic Aston Martin DB5. An icon of British culture and James Bond. What do you think is the most beautiful car ever made?

@Only9built A flattering angle for the Dino and not so flattering for the GT6 in my opinion. The GT6 side profile is just about perfect to me, superb and well proportioned; whereas the Dino looks short in the front and high-roofed to my eyes. I am being very fussy though😁
