Gallery: the achingly cool cars from the Le Mans Classic

Classic Porsches, BMWs, Jaguars and Fords lined up at la Sarthe. Time to drool

  • Last weekend, some of your favourite bedroom-wall poster cars descended upon a little known race track in France. Le Mans.

    It was in honour of the Le Mans Classic: a bi-annual race that celebrates the glory of Le Mans racers of old.

    You know the ones. And the event has become so popular, attendance has doubled over the last few years: in 2016, more than 120,000 spectators came down to watch the likes of the Ford GT40, Jaguar C- and D-Types, all of the Porsche 911s ever and a few choice BMWs (to name a few) hoon around the world famous circuit.

    It's just a mega, mega event, and one that you really need to tick off your list of motorsport must-dos.

    Don't worry if you missed it though - we have pictures. Many, many pictures. Though they can't recreate the noise, smell and atmosphere as well as actually being there, it's pretty damn close. Get clicking, while trying in vain to resist booking your trip to the next Classic...
