Devastated... And a little appaled...
« on: 10, February, 2013 - 21:32:02 »
Went to Beaulieu today. What a disappointment. Rolls Royces, Bond cars, unique relics... And their Sinclair C5 'in storage'... What were they thinking?? Surely it's worthy of a plinth dominating the entire complex? Mounted high above all else for everyone to gaze at in awe? I am frankly dismayed. I had to stare at some odd looking Chitty thingy instead... ;-)

I been their twice and only saw bond cars on second visit.
Still spent 7 hours there each time and never went on monorail.

Whilst it is a shame, they can't always display everything.

You really do like to know everything, don't you?  ;)
