Sun, Lake and Cars

[tiggymalvern]

Every Sunday morning, there's an unofficial car show at Madrona Park in Seattle. I believe some photographers started it - they got a few people they knew with interesting cars to take them to a pretty location on Lake Washington. The photos went up on Instagram, other people with cars brought theirs along the next time, and it's grown and become A Thing. It's a bizarre mix of classic cars (some pristine, some rather less so!), souped up Japanese cars, hot hatches, modern icons; everything turns up sooner or later.

Yesterday was busier than it sometimes is - the sun brought out more exhibits! An original Fiat 124.





Lamborghini Gallardo between a M-series BMW and a souped up Cadillac wagon.



McLaren 670S and a couple of 60s era Porsche 911s (one was technically a 912, but the principle is the same).



A beautifully detailed and maintained Chevy Impala. The cleaning spray and polishing cloths were in the rear seat!





A Ford Elite next to a similar era Caddy.



It's a fun way to spend an hour or so, and you never know what you'll see :-)

We do the All British Field Meet every year in July - a ton of MGs and Morgans and E-type Jaguars (gorgeous all in a row) and a riotous mix of everything else. There are many hundreds of cars, it's a real attention-grabber. It used to be held in a massive car park - it got a lot more scenic several years ago when it moved to the grounds of an old seminary!
