@buzzgraphic Very nice!

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

@MrCarFacts Not sure how the Morgan 4/4 has not featured yet - 1935 to 2019 ?? Too long, but for a small group aficionado’s that will say not long enough!

@jameswgilbert James, this is stunning! Congrats to you and all the guys. I love it

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

@Riz_F1 @astonmartin Yep. That is rather lovely.

@Riz_F1 ❤️

@Riz_F1 @Jaguar Very cool!! A discrete revolution

@Riz_F1 @RSdriver00 @hjwakerley @astonmartin @TOP555Cars @stefaneinz And that looks like a beautiful spec @RSdriver00 - suspect will be a 2+0 without the B&O sound system - one of the first 750 or so built before the auto, 2+2 etc became available.

Ulrich was telling clients “no, never auto, never 2+2” at this point!

@Riz_F1 @RSdriver00 @hjwakerley @astonmartin @TOP555Cars @stefaneinz ‘Thunder and Lightning’, an evocative look at the Aston Martin DBS, photographed by René Staud in Scotland and around Prague. “The mists of the Scottish Highlands and Prague’s maze of tiny alleyways match perfectly to the curves and forms of this uncompromising sports car.

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

@Riz_F1 @RSdriver00 @hjwakerley @astonmartin @TOP555Cars @stefaneinz Thunder and Lightning allows the DBS to be in the spotlight, highlighting its primal power.”

Bez insisted on using Stadt as launch photography- there should be large canvases of the Prague images in dealership store rooms as used to be part of retail corporate id!

Fastest run in the history of drag racing…… and it was in a FORD!!!

If you ever wanted a MkIII Scootercar or any of the other treasures, then 1st March is the date

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

My dad is much at better at buying things than selling them. Anyone that knows him knows this is true.

So it may be a surprise that he has (reluctantly) agreed to move on some of his “treasures”. Some of these cars have not moved for 50years. Others I have NEVER seen

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

Well the garage has been cleared out

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

The cars at an auction house, and the cars are up on for sale on 1st March

@Juanito308 It’s not one of them either. From an era of coachbuilding on chassis, identifying these 1930’s is a real challenge :-)

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

Here is a fun game for my fellow car anoraks - three cars that my dad has lovingly stored for between 40 and 50 years. All are headed to auction shortly.

Can you identity all three? Once I have the correct answer, I will launch round 2. And then 3. Etc.

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

@GrahamBoardman2 O/3 I’ll add another angle to the photo. (Won’t help with the 3 wheeler though! That is niche!)

[MarcusBlake @marcustblake]

@Propster1 1 out of 3
