It was a great day, the weather was kind and the cars were awesome.

There's nothing quite like the sound or smell of an F1 car.

I will get some photos up later on today

I was so hoping that there'd be a Volvo in their Touring Cars class... nope!

I've attached a few piccies - have hundreds and these were simply the first I found!

A few pics from me

Chris evans had a very impressive collection on display he's had all his cars bar this one painted white being he paid 5 million for it

i was shocked how bad the paint on the bonnet was

Did like the new SL65 AMG

Always liked the 599 a very wide car though not sure how a local guy gets round the back lanes in Haslemere so easily

Bugatti Veyron much smaller in the flesh than you think

Nice plate too

One of my favourite cars 250 GTO

I went yesterday for the first time...all I can say is if you think your a petrolhead and you haven't been to Goodwood yet then you are very wrong. Easily the best car show I have been to and nobody minds you looking over the cars touching them ect. I have to agree with the above the 250 GTO is a stunning car and second, imo, only to the 288 GTO of which Chris Evans had his white one in attendance.

Looks stunning in white but I still think I prefer it in red

Russ you must have been there the same time as me as the 250 is in the same place with the same people around it

Unfortunately that's all the pictures I have as I left my camera in the car and the phone which I used to take pictures went flat

Still got the memorys and a few videos on the camcorder so didn't do too badly
