Every year Brooklands Museum hosts a gathering for classic cars and supercars. Cars are parked within the grounds that used to be the world's first purpose built motor racing circuit.

The weather was gloomy (it's England in January after all) but this didn't stop a large turnout of cars for the event. A few pictures are below with many more on the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I'm pretty sure the Huracan still uses the same Lamborghini-made V10 that was in the Gallardo. And so does the R8.

Oh my god. A 1955 Lancia Aurelia B24 Spider. My dream car.

There is a good mix of U.K. and U.S. cars in the link.

I see they had a manual Porsche 928.

I know where another can be found...

Only the final assembly is by Lamborghini. The block and crankcase come from Audi and it was designed by Audi engineers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghi… . The original 5.0 litre V10 in the Gallardo had more differences to the versions used by Audi than the 5.2 litre versions used now.

No in the event, Chevy pickups are rarer than Ferraris in the UK. The Nissan in the background does seem to have sneaked in though (or belongs to someone who works there?)

Ha - Brooklands is a motor and aircraft Museum on account of it being the site of the Vickers Aircraft factory during WW2. That's the Sultan of Brunei's old personal VC10 which was donated to the Museum years ago. They also have a Concorde (picture below with my car from the summer, the VC10 is in the background).

I've seen a few in the classifieds I've been trolling. I'll gladly take it off your hands for $3.50.
