Stunning work, Philip !!!!!!!!!!!! :bravo: and raise:

Many many thanks guys!! Still have to edit my GoPro footage, but sadly (and very disappointing), the battery died before we got to the pass - my fault, accidentally left it on during the stop at Engen One Stop... But did get a nice piece of driving going up some winding hills towards Franshoek - Klaus and myself had loads of fun playing catch-up! :rollsmile:

Have changed settings so that the GoPro doesn't waste power like this again, so that the full two hours can be made use of...

Great pics Phillip!!!

:bravo::bravo::bravo:

Just a quiestion... Who is the owner of the museum/cars...?

I mean some of those cars are in excess of R1m, must belong to someone???

WOW!
Those SL mercs! raise:
The McLaren! :inlove:
The Ferrari's :inlove:
Oh and the Aston's!!!

Stunning stunning cars! When I grow up!

Great picks. Really wish I could have been there.
