A selection of pictures from the British International Motor Show 2008 at ExCeL London, well worth a visit.

I'm going tomorrow!

Be sure to catch one of the Heritage Enclosure parades, they're at 11:30am, 2:00pm, 4:30pm and 7:30pm.

 

That Lotus Evora was a surprise. And it does look rather good...

Yeah it doesn't look too bad does it, although they say it's a 2+2 but judging by this picture it must have paper thin seats!

[imgLINK]http://img184.imagevenue.com/loc518/th_68850_Evora_122_518lo.jpg[/imgLINK]

 

I'm going next saturday or sunday .

 

 

Should be good, although whether or not its worth the trip down to London and back is debatable.

That I can't say, but I must say I was disappointed by the lack of the big marques as randomus_r said, I was especially disappointed by the lack of Aston Martin.

 

Damn, cool pictures! me needs a better camera :/

 

Anyways, is it just me who thought it was weird the lack of mainstream marques that were missing? Audi, BMW, Volkswagen, Skoda, Fiat, Volvo, etc...

Got to agree with you on the missing marques, it was the same in 2006 although Aston Martin and Volvo were there then.

 

Thanks for complementing the pictures, I'm just a point and clicker and most didn't come out too badly. The camera is a Panasonic DMZ-TZ5 by the way.

 

Amazing lineup of cars outside! No pictures of the dark blue Daytona but yet you took some of the NSX and blue 328?

Yes there was a great selection of cars of all ages outside.

 

Dark blue Daytona? .... There was a dark grey Daytona and there is a picture of that.

 

 

Here's three more pictures that should have been in the first post that didn't seem to upload to imagevenue correctly.

Yeah thats the one. Is there? I can't see it or maybe i'm blind? :lol::p

It's between the Jaguar D type and XK180, well it is on my screen anyway, can you not see it then?

 

needs to come back to the NEC

I went to it once at the NEC and must admit that it was on a much larger scale compared to the London events at Earls Court and ExCeL, but I'm going to be selfish and say I'd prefer it to stay in London. :cheeky:

See I'm not bothered that Aston Martin or Ferrari aren't there after all I will never be able to afford one so thats why I am happy with Vauxhall, Saab, Peugeot and all of the other mainstream brands there :thumbsup:.

Oh My God! That`s the best motorshow I`ve ever seen. I mean, we have a motorshow every year here in Varna, Sofia and Plovdiv. But this year Sofia Motorshow was just for vans, buses and pick-ups. :( Everybody expect Plovdiv Motorshow to be the best. They say Nissan GT-R will be presented there. :bow:

Yeah I saw it in the background of one of the pictures but didn't you get a closeup of it?

Sorry I wasn't very clear, what I meant was there should be closeup picture of the Daytona between the pictures of the D type and the XK180. Anyway I've posted this picture again (the first one) and the three other pictures of the Daytona I have below, curse those roof support and information plaques!
