    Hi guys,

    I have uploaded my pictures from Friday's action from the Le Mans Series at Silverstone.

    Did anyone else make it on Sat or Sun??

    We started the trip to Silverstone from Nottingham so we popped into Graypauls on the way. The black and blue 16M’s were still in the showroom along with the F50 however there were also a black Murci Roadster there (a bargain at £112k!!), whilst a red Enzo, red Daytona & Dino and white 16M were in the workshop. There were also several red and black California’s in the showroom but the most distinct being a off white/cream colour which is shown in the pics.

    The highlights at Silverstone were of course the Le Mans cars and more specifically the LMP's, however some other motors caught my eye that day... The day started with a black on black CGT which was particularly striking. There was also a gorgeous F50 at the Ferrari place on the Silverstone Business Park which was parked opposite the full carbon fibre 'Riversimple' - a Hydrogen Urban car, which made for an interesting contrast.
    The classics that supported the Le Mans series were a joy to watch on track with a wide variety of flame spitting monsters racing including a monstrous De Tomaso, several BMW M1's, a Ferrari 275 and plenty others which I need help from you to identify...
    I was surprised to see a purple Plymouth Prowler and a V10 R8 in the paddock car park. There was a new Maserati QP with the Gran Tourismo front grill and a GL63 and a S65 AMG. The chap who owns Team Modena was there in a gorgeous two tone (blue & white) special edition Ferrari 612, not sure of the edition??
    For all the pictures of the cars mentioned and more can be found on the above link but they won’t be completely uploaded for another hour.
    Can anyone tell me the model of the classic green Aston Martin?? Cheers

    I also saw a white Caparo T1 at the Stratton Motor Company on Saturday, the chap in the showroom let me take plenty of pics and even sit in it. The sheer size of it was surprising even though it was parked next to a Caterham R500... I’ll get the pics up tomorrow on post a link in the spotteds section.

    Thanks for looking
