Title: Goodwood Revival
Post by: JamesL on September 09, 2017, 06:56:24
Yup. three years on from the European Event, it's that weekend again. Though this time late summer didn't oblige... torrential rain at times in the afternoon and I imagine some will have struggled to get out of the car parks. First pic is arrival, not departure! It made for some interesting qualification though as cars were sideways (and beyond) all over the place. Though several red flags as cars were recovered from the grass...

Grandstand or beer tent to escape the showers? Hmmmmm. Tough call

The dark blue car below was for sale (£70k) and had the wrong leather interior but was an RHD 250 manual. Anyone know it - or the Belgian car I parked near. The rain prevented me from one of my favourite activities: wandering the old car park :-[

James,
Fond memories of the 2014 Event. Thanks for sharing pictures. Good to see rain was not constant, some blue skies too!

Dear all,
Wondering if any W113's will be going to Goodwood Revival 2018 this weekend , we will be there early Friday and Saturday and maybe Sunday , and would be good to meet at the classic car park.
Regards
John
