The 2017 Festival of Speed Presented by Mastercard, will take place from June 29th to July 2nd.
Amongst a glittering array of cars and motorcycles from around the world, this year the festival will celebrate racing machines that were so fast, powerful, expensive or complicated that the rules had to be changed to rein them in. This year’s theme – ‘Peaks of Performance – Motorsport’s Game-Changers’ – will pay tribute to the high-watermarks of motorsport.
The event will showcase the greatest examples of this theme. From the jewel-like 1.5-litre Delage 15 S8 to the brutish Mercedes-Benz W125, the extraordinary 50cc Honda RC166 to the savage Lancia Delta S4, the beautiful Ferrari 330 P4 to the space-age Benetton B193B, or the unbeatable Penske PC23 to the flame-spitting Zakspeed Capri, these are cars and motorcycles that left an indelible mark on the history of motorsport.

Every now and then, a car appears in an auction catalogue that makes us stop scrolling. And this is definitely one of them. A 2004 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG. One of just 100 coupés ever built. A supercharged 5.4-litre V8 producing 582bhp. And an original owner who happens to be a Formula One World Champion. […]
There’s something about the MG RV8 that we’ve always liked. Perhaps it’s the familiar MGB-inspired styling. Perhaps it’s the combination of traditional British roadster character and a wonderfully uncomplicated Rover V8.
