An astonishing collection of classic cars




After Ducati, the cryptic clues in the rally book led us to a quiet corner of the countryside, where we pulled up in the courtyard of an anonymous looking farmhouse.




However, when the doors to some old converted wine cellars were opened, we were presented with the largest collection we've ever seen of classic cars. We lost count of the number of Ferrari cars that we saw, together with Lambourghinis and Alfa Romeos going back over the last century. The cars were packed into the space and we were allowed to simply wander amongst them.




Hopefully this photo will give you an idea of what we saw. After, we had lunch at a local restaurant and then made our own way back to the hotel in preparation for this evening's meal and charity auction event. Need to keep hands in pockets if the bidding gets competitive!
