First time I visited it today, I was deadly upset over the lack of BMW material and the excessive presence of yankydoodle 70's buses.

Now I'm not how on my early models so who can tell me what these are :D

Red one is an E9 and the white one is a 2002. :)

It does actually say what they are on the little information board in front of each car... :P

The museum was really good but even ambling round slowly and discussing cars etc we were done in about an hour and a half, so defo couple in the air arm museum! We didn't because the airshow was on and traffic was awful.

I'm fairly sure it's an Allard...The only other thing it could be is an AC Ace...
