Le Mans Classic is extraordinary, 6 race grids of 76 cars each, 3 "guest" grids (Challenge Jaguar, Challenge Porsche and Group C) with as many cars (Except maybe for the Group C).
8500 club cars ranging from the popular to the latest supersport from 1900 to 2022 with a large majority of cars from the 50s / 60s / 70s. Admittedly there are some replicas / reconstructions both in racing -Ferrari 250 GTO for example - and in clubs -AM DB4GT Zagato, sorry it is not a real DB4 GTZ- but much less than 1%, and always very well made.
An auction with extraordinarie cars with some were sold more than one million €.
And this meeting is over 3 and a half days, with the possibility of doing 2 laps of the 24 hour circuit of Le Mans in your own car.
And what I can't put in my pictures is the magnific sound of the motors (Ah the V12 of the Ferrari 312 P, or the V10 of the Peugeot 905...), and the battles on the track.

I am signing for next year, especially since we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans...

Jaguar XJ220

but also simpler cars like this beautiful Samba Rallye
Image
There's an XJ220 in a car dealers here in Dubai.
The Samba is nice but it's no Chrysler/Talbot Sunbeam :)

You know, those supercars are all well and good but the Rover P5 is the absolute star of the show. I'd spend more time looking at that and the Samba than any Ferrari

Sadly, I've only just seen these. Thanks for the huge effort posting soooo many pictures, Lodein.

It's funny what people stop to look at, eg P5 amongst many others. Maybe it's because they seem to be more attainable than the super cars or that they stand out for being 'more ordinary' in a sea of spectacularlism, which then becomes the 'norm'.

Once everything's special, nothing is. :lol:
