Not today, but a couple of pictures I took last week down at my friends place of the Astra he is rebuilding. 

It's one of the early 2.0 8v versions before the 16v XE version came along. It was used by Pentti Airikkala in 1986. The airborne image is an earlier car Pentti drove, but close to what this one should look like once it's all done.

Not a car that i would consider for this thread, but it sure made me think the people designing this Corolla must have seen the Jester. Driving it for the weekend, it dont resemble the Jester in any other way.

Morris Cowley

This is the car (and the more upmarket Oxford) that Hindustan in India bought the rights to produce and used as taxis in the late ‘50s right up until 2014

Not necessarily a good car as it's in really sh*tty shape and a total dog in my opinion. 

But I have this stored at my place for a friend of a friend at the moment.

It's quite a rare/unusual beast and a Gran Turismo classic. 

Nissan Stagea Autech 260RS with a manual gearbox. Or if you prefer, essentially a Skyline estate.

I’m at my parents for Christmas (the house that I grew up in) 

The guy who grew up in the house opposite is visiting his parents today. He was a proper boy racer in the early/mid 1990s. He now has this

My dad said when he first turned up in it, it was bright green. Then he got it wrapped in the matt black and now has added the white. 
 

he used to have a Ferrari before the lambo

Went to the Historic GP  in Zandvoort yesterday with my dad. 
I's been a few years since I was there for the last time and a lot of changes have made since. The facilities are now suitable for F1 as the second F1 race is to be held in september. The biggest changes to the track itself are the Luyendijk corner and the Hugenholtz corner.

Those are very banked corners now. Both about 18 degrees. The Luyendijk corner (names after two time Indy 500 winner Arie Luyendijk) is the corner which leads to the straight so that one is full throttle.

The historic GP consists of a variety of different classes racing. F1, F3, Sportscars, GT's, etc. Combined with some demo runs. I've put some pictures and videos in an Imgur post (https://imgur.com/a/oXEKQAM) and I've put a few of them below.
