Went to this before the Le Man 24 Open track walk (ran the 8 mile lap with a mate) the day before the race.

The Classic British Welcome originated from a passion for Le Mans and the 24 hour race. It’s a fun, colourful car show to welcome visitors to Le Mans, and is held every year on the Friday before the 24 hour race. Over a thousand classic cars of all shapes and sizes, from all around the world, gather in Saint-Saturnin, on the northern outskirts of Le Mans.


Thought id put the pictures here rather than overload Daily encounters! Mianly to find a decet car wash to blast off all the Hippodrome campsite dusk and had a space for the Pistonheads section at the event where also spotted @badgeruk and his noisy companion on the way in :cool: I went back to the car as it was raining and a French guy asked if he could record the roof going up, I said just jump in and you do it, great to see some energy abroad for a car I worked on. Amazing range of cars and the locals seem to love it.

Great photos. Was out first time going to Le Mans.

I thought it was only 2 doors and classics that could show? Had I known I would have taken the Impreza over. Wish we'd gone to take a look now.

Did you go into Arnage on Friday evening? That was crazy.
 
First time for me too, guys I went with had been before, one 19 times! Alpina B7 in our group certainly turned heads at the services and campsites. Love having a Fulli tag for the peage too.

Went into Le Man itself Friday after the concert, ended up in a bar until about 4am before an “altercation” with a French guy.
 
Wrong one, this was Jean Paul gaultier - well he certainly left with a stripy shirt :D

I spotted the pope at a nearby internet Cafe im sure ...
