September seems like long ago now but I've just found some of my pictures taken at Beaulieu. Most were outside the Bonhams auction tent but the Herald was on a classic car magazine stand:

Some of your early pictures add a whole new aspect to the term "Kit Car" Laughing
Any ideas about what anything made?

Wow, some interesting prices there. Thanks for the link.
I think the entry to the auction is about £25. In the 15 or so years I've been going to Beaulieu, I've never been able to justify paying that price. The S-Type Jag was a pretty reasonable price though...

I've been going to Beaulieu for many years without (legitimately) gaining entry to the auction tent but this last year I had the excitement of bidding for someone else and won Lot 309.

Fortunately Bonhams staff were very helpful in shifting the lot. It totally filled a Mercedes Sprinter.

Now that looks like a challenge.
I assume you've got a chassis lined up to attach all those nice bits to?
