The exploded F1 car is awesome. You can't really do it justice in 2D.


I wonder if they would get upset if you nudge a couple of bits to make them all swing and bump into each other :evilgrin:

I like this one best:



This one (I think):



And definitely this one :



But the rest of the modern ones look a bit too chunky/clunky for my taste even if they are superbly engineered etc.

Had a great day out there courtesy of MB UK a few years back, stunning place with some superb machinery! Is the 190E Cosworth still there? Only had a few thousand miles on from memory!  :love:

Didn't see a 190E Cossie Nath.  :ashamed:

Quite a few F1 cars (or models) but I have to say the Mika one looks the best.

Would love to go there! That F1 is immense!

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Get down there sharpish then, the display stuff changes regularly (although I can't see them taking that down in a hurry!)
