good pics, loving the ones of the lancia and the megane.

Most things that were group b rallyed are pretty damn cool.

there was a lancia delta s4 for sale on autotrader a while back for £100 000 (the s4 was the road version of the rally car as all group b rally cars had to have at least 200 cars exactly the same as the rally cars for on road) i wouldent mind a 037 either or a rs2000 or a t16 lol

EDIT: some pics of the megane trophy

The Van reminds me of the Ford Super Van 3 which thay had there last year, something like 500Bhp in super stripped down transit.

Did Bowler have thier demo stand again?

£15 for a drive with a pro driver might seem quite a lot but it was appsolutely immense.

Nice pics, loving the Megane Sport, looks awesome.

I finally had a trip in the Bowlers after missing out last year. £15 for 30 secs of auto-lunacy. Was terrific! Incredible how fast they accelerate, especially when you see how rutted the track is, which you can't from the viewing areas.

Was good, but so much busier than last year! Fortunatley I arrived at 7:30 so I'd got time to do the F1 paddock before it filled up!

The Ferrari 612 looks awful, as does the 599 on the pentagram wheels. The 430 is only just starting to grow on me... I couldn't see any of the super rare stuff that they had last year - Mclaren F1 GTR Longtail, Ferrari 288 GTO - and instead we got a Spiker next to the Veyron.

And a Merc AMG SLK DTM f**king convertible! Are their now sufficient numbers of pro-footballers and nouveau riche that they should make such a car? Disgraceful.

Oh, and God bless Doornobs for doing burnouts all up the hill for those of us watching behind the Bowlers!

Did you see/hear the Renault playing tunes? Was so loud it was incredible!

Got some good pics too!

loving the Megane Sport, looks awesome.

Saw them racing at Donnington last year, they're dedicated racecars made to look a bit like Meganes, with no Megane bits in them.

Very, very quick, sound great, look like a real handful.

To be honest, there's too much there to do in one day. I was rushing around all day, and didn't see many of the stands or the manufacturers bits. Saw a MAD demo though :D - Also saw Jack Meek in Toddington services on the way home. Random.

Did you get taken out in the Cayennes or did they let you drive? Given a choice between the two, I'd rather have the Wildcat, especially if the choice is which one to buy...

I saw the demo team aswell got giles autograph and loads of free bits. If you are over 18 and been driving for 2 years you can drive the cayenne yourself overwise your taken out in it. and yeh the wildcat is the better one but should be longer :)
