Auto Italia at Brooklands 2015

Italian cars. So beautiful to look at.

Lamborghini. Ferrari. Alfa Romeo. Maserati. Fiat.
All had fantastic numbers attend. Seeing so many of each brand, was like viewing a production line at each factory. Such variations, and the care people have taken to keep the older models so pristine is amazing.

I was attending with Lamborghini Club UK and they had a stunning display of 52 cars! Ranging from various models of Gallardo's, to a Murcielago SV and obviously Aventadors with a few other models!

This Lamborghini Aventador, courtesy of Lamborghini Pangbourne, was absolute perfection!! The Black & Gold just looked incredible. The Gold stitching on the interior looked flawless and the Gold alloys just finished this off beautifully.

One of my favourite images was this...  The stand off!!

Visitors to LCUK's stand was Oakley Design's Matte Chrome Green LP680 Huracan! This colour was just stunning. It suited the car so well, really showcasing it's shape.

The club was lucky to participate in the parade lap. Prior to the Lambo's getting to be unleashed (a tad) on track. These guys went first...

I really enjoy getting to shoot these incredible cars, that are a part of LCUK. They're cars you can only dream of getting close to when you're young!

Now these were some of my favourite pics I took -

Oakley Design Lamborghini Huracan LP680-4

I've been very lucky in being allowed to see this car up close numerous times and being able to shoot it too, so figured I'd post some pics and info about it.

The guys at Oakley Design do fantastic work in modifying supercars cosmetically as well as enhancing the cars performance. I think the most well known type of car they modify has to be the Lamborghini Aventador. So it came as no surprise to find Oakley Design were taking on modifying the Lamborghini Huracan.

Here's when they took the freshly delivered Lambo to JF Automotive to do a dyno run.

This was done so they could see what they were working with, before cracking on with modifying under the bonnet!
As the weeks passed I was sent progress pics to upload to instagram which got people interested in how the finished product would look, especially as more companies were starting to release their images/renderings of the Huracan.

These centre locks look AMAZING when they're fitted on to the ADV.1 wheels used.

Well here's how the car has ended up looking, shot whilst on a wind tunnel testing trip to Mira!

Not only does this car now look stunning! The performance has improved considerably...
BHP - 688
TORQUE - 683
0 - 60 - 2.5sec
TOP SPEED - 215mph
WEIGH REDUCTION - 107kg
AERO DOWNFORCE +24% @ 150mph     

It sounds beautiful too due to the full Titanium Oakley Exhaust.

I've genuinely fallen in love with this car! I'm now awaiting a Euromillions win so I can purchase one ;)

Autosport 2015

Hey!

Well, I attended Autosport 2015 at the NEC with some friends of mine. A plastidipper and 2 videographers/photographers.

I'm not going to lie, I was a tad underwhelmed at the size of the event... having said that, I did attend SEMA last year so... makes sense that that would seem tiny in comparison anyway!

As we walked through the main doors we were greeted by my friends at Oakley Design's latest project, their Lamborghini Huracan alongside a British GT championship Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3.

There were some great cars on display, ranging from classics to hypercars. These included a BMW 2002, Ferrari F40, Audi Quattro, Colin Mcrae's old 555 livery Subaru Impreza WRC car, Petter Solberg's Citroen DS3 through to Blancpain Audi R8's, Lamborghini Huracan's, GT3 Bentley Continental, Ken Block's Ford Fiesta up to a Ferrari LaFerrari.

So the variety of cars was good, just the event wasn't big enough.

Anyway here's some images,
