Dyson Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 On Saturday, me and thunderer decided we'd do something a little different. The night before we decided it'd be pretty sweet to head over to Wilton House for the Supercars show that was on. So, a 2 hour train journey later we get lost in Salisbury and I get angry at paying to take money out of my account. We do however get there in the end.. The weather wasn't on the best of form during the day.. But it did clear up a little later on. We saw some stunning cars.. And some, uh, not so stunning cars.. I got to sit in my dream car (as well as several other Mercs and a couple of Bentley's - tanks as I like to call them now).. And was lucky enough to snag a photo with the Veyron as the crowds died down.. (I may have snuck in a touch of it too, but shh..) In summary, the day was totally..
MadDog Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 Nice pictures Is that the Mercedes SLS your sat in? That Morgan is a really beautiful car, nearly as pretty as the Aston
Dyson Posted August 17, 2010 Author Posted August 17, 2010 It is! The SLS AMG was my favourite car at the show and as a result has become my object of desire Only £180k...hmm. That's doable, right? I absolutely love that matte black finish the Aston has. I saw another car with it and it looked just as sleek. Failing my ability to earn 180k and the running costs I'll just get a speedy toy with that finish. It looks epic The Veyron is a beast. I look small next to it, and I ain't a small person.

Raining_again Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 hahaha brilliant. I've seen one of those nissan? cube cars about the town (YES SOMEONE ACTUALLY BOUGHT ONE IN REAL LIFE I KNOW!) and its even uglier in real life :P That veyron looks swwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeet! Wouldn't work too well over speedbumps though!!
Dyson Posted August 17, 2010 Author Posted August 17, 2010 Bahaha the Cube thing was great. It was right next to the Mercedes Benz stand too which made it that much sweeter. And it was their centrepiece?! It made very little sense to me Good point about the Veyron's speedbumps, but when you're going at full speed I don't think you'll care too much. You'll take off
Will Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 Love the pictures, bet you had a great time. I do like the matte cars, I imagine they are a total pain to keep clean though. There is one thing I don't understand... How did the Cube qualify as a super car?
Dyson Posted August 19, 2010 Author Posted August 19, 2010 It was part of the trade show, it wasn't part of the parade bit It was really odd to see their stand next to the Merc stand where they had cars worth £180k+
