Photos from the 2014 Festival of Speed.
My interest in the Goodwood Festival of Speed has waned over the last few years. The large crowds and massive manufacturer display stands make for a far too commerical experience for me. As a result, I've given it a miss for the last few years, but this year I needed to go as the Iso Grifo was being sold in the Bonhams auction. Here are a selection of photos from the event.

My cat likes to catch flies, so I suspect he would like a ride in the Morgan Plus 8 Speedster
