There were also a great number of others mentioned in this thread from back in Feb, but the following I believe was mentioned by @Triggaaar and was probably the most valuable car there this weekend.

I think this is Nick Mason’s car and he is believed to have acquired it back in the late 70s for around £35k. One sold at auction last year for just shy of $52m!
Festival of speed 2 years ago. I didn't take the pic my son did.

I can't understand this obsession with cars. They're all the same under the bonnet. They're just a means from getting from A to B.

**** puts on tin hat and runs for cover ****
All I can say to that is that this thread probably isn't the one for you :shrug:

My first car. Wasn't great in the damp, but a fantastic vehicle for surf trips, especially for long trips down D roads in France (or even Brighton in the winter) - I'd take the back seat out and sleep on a foam rubber mattress. Cornered like a dream.
Citroen offered to replace with a new car if you could actually roll it over on a normal road, I believe, which it feels like it will do on every sweeping bend. Seldom need to slow down in one of these! They will run flat out all day with their air cooled engine.

This video pretty much proves Citroen were right, but don't watch until the end if you like 2CVs.

Do you feel the same about basically everything? Clothes just cover you, a home is just a roof over your head, food and drink are just to keep you alive etc?

Damn. You've got me sussed. A holiday is just a waste of time away from football etc.

Don't take me so literally Triggaaar. Sometimes I'm joking. Well, quite often actually.

Except when I posted the picture of the Wiesmann Roadster. I certainly wasn't joking about that. The first time I saw one, it moved me.
