There's only one Lancia (an Aurelia) in this set, but it surely has to be one of the most mouthwatering selections of cars you'll have ever seen actually being used and not just parked up in a field.

Hi Lee,
I maybe wrong (no doubt someone will tell me if I am ::))but I think the reason is that the cars now have to be driven to Pebble Beach these days rather than arrive as trailer queens, but I must agree, lovely to see them being used.

I read somewhere that taking part in the tour is a benefit for a tie break.   What did we do before google?   Ten seconds later I can confirm.

Aside from that, and a lovely route, and seeing all the other cars from your car - a "catered gourmet lunch, a champagne celebration at the finish and commemorative gifts".

Looking at the pictures how gauling to get the 166 out and somebody else in one, and the same colour  :-\
