"The mother of all races ", a euphoric Eric exclaimed after the race, "with an on-going battle down to tenths of seconds. Fighting it out for victory with Kenis, Gomez and Soulet was great fun, and, regarding Ford, this victory comes at the right moment. I believe I have proved that the Mustang, which went down like a house on fire with the crowds, is equally at ease on a fast track as on a more technical circuit, such as Oschersleben. One thing is for sure: this GT4 European Cup competition has a great future. During the next round at Francorchamps, as curtain raiser for the FIA-GT 24 Hours, the grid will probably be more filled, and it is everything we could wish for Pascal Witmeur and his team, who have truly developed a highly promising concept. In the meanwhile, time for champagne!”

Salon Privé, London, 11-13 July:  What better way to spend the day?  A bottle of bubbly, croquet on the lawn at the Hurlingham Club, and your Ford GT waiting there to whisk you home afterwards?  Bliss!  

Well, thanks in part to P1, who were exhibiting at July’s prestigious Salon Privé 3-day event, you could do that.  P1 pioneered the concept of shared access to supercars when it launched in October 2000. Now  in its seventh year the club offers its members the ultimate way to enjoy year-round access to a £5m garage of the world’s finest and fastest cars, without the costs of ownership.  P1 has branches in the South and North of  England, each providing 250 members access to, amongst others, Ferraris, Porsches and Aston Martins. Recent arrivals include the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and Bentley Continental GTC.

At this year’s Salon Privé P1 displayed just two contrasting cars from its fleet - a Le Mans-inspired centenary edition Ford GT (left) and a bright orange Porsche 997 GT3 RS.
