Hi Mr Bridger,

Many thanks for your added info, the reasoning for only posting pics of 17R and 18R, was to show Greg the colour schemes that they are currently displayed with, at this moment in time. Talking of your chassis 16R, I have some action pics, of which I shall post soon.

PS. please let me know if and when, you would like to take over the quiz (with rewards)


Hi Erik, Many thanks for your additional pic of the 96 BMW promo GTR

Hi Mr. Bridger,

How do you like these?



I took them back in 1996 at the "Essen-Motorshow" in Germany.

- World Rally Championship and other rally series
- Production car-based racing categories such as GTs and Touring Cars

- And karting, in the form of the Karting Show, representing top kart manufacturers, accessory retailers and race organisers all on hand to give advice on how to start kart racing!"

Hopefully this means the F1 will be there too, but I can't see anywhere a displayer list

there is also the Pistonheads Performance car show as well.

Maybe worth a trip to the UK again
