Really big TAG presence at goodwood today, don't think anyone was mistaken about who was sponsoring the event! It's a fantastic event, totally worth a visit.

Here's a few from the day, pathway to the TH drivers club:


TH retail pavilion, this was very busy when we swung past, seemed to be attracting a fair few people saying 'this is my current tag, which shall I buy next?'. I tried a Connected, but didn't really feel the urge to buy, my girlfriend spent a while trying to decide between an aquaracer and a small ladies Carrera. None of the new tags really made me want to put down my black aquaracer, it just goes so well with a t-shirt. Sorry for the lack of photos of the inside, it was rammed!


Ford GT, nicely parked next to the previous GT and a GT40:


Bmw 3.0 on track, with bmw centrepiece sculpture and Goodwood House in background.


Honda toy garage:


Finally, I found this collection of beauties on an auction house stand, first time I've seen an Autavia and a camaro in the metal, truly stunning (my girlfriend lost me for about 10mins to these):

is there a reason for the Colombian flag emblazoned on the watch's strap and the car?

Good writeup on Hodinkee, by the Sunday everyone was sick of hearing about brexit and was happy to focus on the far more important issue of which million-dollar car was faster up the hill 😀 there were an incredible array of watches on display, lots of Carreras, a surprising number of new F1s and a fair few rolexs - or maybe just that those are watches I can identify those at a glance.

It's a great show, one that I would recommend to anyone. Roll on the revival.

My wife was gutted she didn't get to meet Patrick Dempsey while we there. Some great pictures here.

Wow, the asking price is way more than I thought it would be.
Maybe it comes with a free watch
