My day finished with this glorious static display in front of the Duke of Richmond’s mansion.

The static display of historic racing Porsches in front of the stately home of the Duke of Richmond.

The fabulous 964 Porsche as imagined by Singer, jointly developed with Williams F1 engineering. A truly stunning piece of automotive engineering. Jewel-like and gobsmackingly gorgeous. If you have to ask the price, you cannot afford it.

The Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo. This car destroyed the 35-year-old lap record of the Nurburgring – in a scarcely believable  5min 19.546sec.

Cars of note in this gallery: 1984 Paris-Dakar Porsche 953, 1987 Rothmans Porsche 962C, driven by Jochen Mass to victory at the Kyalami 500, Ferrari Daytona, Aston Martin DBS V8.

Hope you have enjoyed these pictures.
