I'd suggest visiting CHELSEA AUTOLEGENDS:

...and please post your pictures here at AMIT  ;D

UPDATE: You may be able to see Marks beautiful Maserati 300S also.

The Car Was The One:  ;)

Maserati 300S
The car raced in South America for many years and won the Interlagos 500kms race in 1963. During the past few years the car has been magnificently restored to its original specification.  With its 3.0 Litre 6 cylinder generating 245bhp at 7000rpm the Maserati 300 S has a top speed of 180mph and can accelerate from 0-60mph in just 6.7 seconds. In the 2002 Classic Le Mans it was driven to 4th in Class by Alain De Cadenet.

Also Red Staggerwing:
"...If i was a Maserati
A red 300s
I'd ride around to your house, baby
Give you a driving test..."

Ironically I can't stand the song, too "country-ish" for me.

I guess you are a Chris Rea fan too?   Did you see him this year, he and MK always seem to tour on the same year now.

Cars and guitars - he loves the cars, I love guitars

Yes, I re-discovered Chris Rea approximately a year ago. Saw him on tour for the first time this year and it blew me away :-)
Oh - and I love guitars and the cars too!

Dancing down the Stoney Road is awesome 8) 8) well worth a few quid in the local HMV.

Indeed, know that one already - I think I'll buy Blue Guitars (that massive "earbook") next.

I bought it when it came out - never got around to listening to all of of it though.

You probably have this on DVD but its pure genius if you ask me 8) 8)
