Dan, from beautiful Suffolk England. Cars and gaming are my thing. This will probably end up being just full of car pictures.

Had a blast at this years classic and sports cars by the bridge at @suffolkfoodhall .
Such a great event to go to and some fab cars.
If any of the cars featured belong to you and you would prefer for them not to be posted, please get in touch and I will be happy to remove them.

This is the 2024 Gordon Murray Automotive T.50, finished in a wonderful shade of orange with blue accents over a blue interior. If you haven’t yet heard of this fantastic automobile, the Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) T.50 was created and designed by South African-born British designer of the McLaren F1, Formula One race cars, and numerous other projects, Gordon Murray. As the founder and CEO of Gordon Murray Automotive, Gordon Murray set out to develop a modern day interpretation of the iconic McLaren F1, the car most motorcar aficionados claim to be the greatest automobile of all time. The T.50 will be built in just 100 production units for the entire world, with 13 prototypes which were constructed before August 2020 to comply with regulations. At just 2,174lbs, the T.50 weighs in around 66lbs lighter than a McLaren F1, and interestingly, as you can see, there is a 8.5 kW 40 cm aerodynamic fan integrated into the rear side of the bodywork, which is powered by a 48 volt electrical motor. The purpose-built fan takes inspiration from the Brabham BT46B Formula One car, and its sole purpose is to improve the car’s ground effect. Many noticeable elements are directly shared with the famous McLaren F1, such as the central seating position, the V12 engine, a six-speed manual gearbox, dihedral wing doors and fan assisted aerodynamics. GMA will produce an additional 25 performance-oriented racing variants of the T.50 known as the Gordon Murray Automotive T.50S Niki Lauda which will include improved aerodynamics and power.

Little cars getting their big moment: the hatches of October 2024.

Many of these came out of the Scramblers membership, where anything – anything! – goes.

Tour De Oxfordshire - Day 3 - Scrambling - Was a grey wet day but that didn’t stop an array of stunning cars and fabulous people turning up to Bicester Heritage. It’s a fantastic event and I can’t wait for the next one.

This is the 1986 Ferrari Testarossa Spider Valeo, a one-off project built specifically for Italian industrialist Gianni Agnelli as a celebration of 20 years since he had become president of Fiat in 1966. Ferrari started construction of the body in February of 1986, with a finished product being ready just 4 months later in June. The car was first ever registered in Turin, Italy with the number plate ‘TO 00000G’. The Testarossa model first went into production in 1984 as the successor model to the Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer (BB), and with approximately 9,939 total examples produced (including the 512 TR & F512 M), it’s one of Ferrari’s most mass produced models that they’ve ever created. The Testarossa was designed by a collaborative effort from Leonardo Fioravanti, Ian Cameron, Guido Campoli, Emanuele Nicosia, Diego Ottina while working for the Italian coach building and design firm, Pininfarina, and following the end of the Testarossa’s production, two additional model revisions were created, the 512 TR & F512 M. The model was shown for the first time ever at the 1984 Paris Motor Show. The Testarossa’s aerodynamic drag coefficient of Cd=0.36 was quite low in comparison to the Lamborghini Countach’s 0.42 at the time, and ultimately, the model had great reception from the media and consumers. Of the 9,939 examples produced through 1984–1996 (including the 512 TR & F512 M), only 1 example was built as a Spider in Maranello by Ferrari themselves. The silver color shown here (Argento 101/C) was chosen specially because AG (standing for Agnelli Gianni) is the symbol for silver on the periodic table. Considering this car is a factory-built Spider, there is are a number of added buttons and switches that aren’t normally found on a Testarossa, such as a Valeo electronic clutch system accessible by the push of a button. Pininfarina and other companies have also modified a number of other Testarossa examples to become Spiders.

This is the 1997 Spectre R45, one of just two examples built for the entire world, the only one painted yellow and the only one on the road today. The R45 was developed by British boutique automobile manufacturer Spectre Supersports Ltd which was founded by Ray Christopher in the 1990s. Christopher, who was previously associated with British company GT Development had always dreamed of creating his very own supercar. In late 1992, Christopher began development work of his own car called the R42. The first ‘R42’ was officially shown at the 1993 London Motor Show. In 1995, an American company named Spectre Motors took over the R42 project. With former GT development sales agent Anders Hildebrand leading the project, the team quickly began to reorganize production of the R42. The R42 utilizes a full fiberglass body over a aluminium honeycomb monocoque with steel subframe and steel rollover bars. The first and possibly most important step was the launch of the ‘ALCO-Spectre racing programme’, again with the intentions of racing at Le Mans. However, with such little time to execute, the cars were all reportedly put together quickly and without attention to detail. A Le Mans variant of the R42, called the ‘R42 GTR’ was made and it was scheduled to race in Le Mans in 1997, but Spectre again ran out of funding, and it never raced. The car shown here, known as the R45 was set to be the successor model to the R42, and was developed alongside its predecessor. The R45 features a body made entirely of fiberglass, a 4.6-litre Ford V8 engine and many other improvements that ultimately made the R45 lighter, more aerodynamic, and sleeker than the R42 model. The R45 made it’s official debut during the 1997 London Motor Show where it was shown by actor Desmond Llewellyn, however, just one year later, both the R42 and R45 projects left for good in 1998 due to insufficient funding.
