One of the highlights of this historic racing season were the Global Endurance Legends high speed demonstrations during the Peter Auto events. These brought out a wide variety of machinery like the Jaguar XJR-15 that ran at both the Spa Classic and Le Mans Classic. Originally owned and raced by Bob Wollek, the featured example was a particularly great specimen of the thinly disguised Group C racer that was built for a short-lived one-make series. Like the prototype racers, it was based on, the XJR-15 features a carbon-fibre composite monocoque and a howling V12 engine.
This weekend, the Belgian North Sea coast town of Knokke-Heist will host the annual Zoute Concours d'Elegance. As part of the proceedings, British auctioneer Bonhams will stage a sale on Friday evening. One of the headliners is this beautifully restored Ferrari 250 GT Coupe. Even though it was earmarked for California, it was actually delivered new to a Belgian enthusiast and as such has come full circle. Chassis 1625GT is estimated to sell for Euro 600,000 - 800,000.
Our eye was also caught by the pair of mighty mid-engined Renault 5 Turbos consigned. The sale includes both a Turbo 1 and the later Turbo 2. The early and more hardcore Turbo 1 is particularly interesting as it is in virtually brand new condition.
