How much was the stratos? one of my all time favourite cars.
I've got to agree. I honestly cannot remember but I doubt you'd have got much change, if any, out of 拢70k.
I do think I've discovered my new response to the question "What would you do if you won the lottery".

Maybe they were outbid by Master Card? I hope we'll see them there in the future.

Montblanc has taken over as "official timing partner" for the next 5 years, after 6 years of TAG Heuer having the role.

While I get that it does fit with their new TimeWalker collection (they're pushing this range as their motorsport-inspired watch), the overall brand fit is terrible- I just don't get a motorsport feel from Montblanc, unlike say TAG Heuer, Rolex, Longines, Jaeger, etc.

For comparison, IWC were the partner for the revival (iirc)

Thanks for the update. Didn't know the Goodwood FOS sponsorship contracts were that long.
