Quaranta
Khamsin Quaranta was simply amazing and it definitely made up for all the hassle in getting the prototype ready. What a great way to celebrate my birthday! Meeting Mr Gandini and having him sign the dashboard of #004 surely ranks as my best automotive experience ever! I want to thank all participants for their lovely company and kind words. My compliments to all the participating Khamsins and to my own team that took care of the proto and logistics. Merci beaucoup everyone!

Hello all,
Thanks for all the emails will catch up today and during the week end, I think I need a Weber carb expert to reset the vegetable between my ears: really working in slow motion:-)! I posted a little video just now: click and it will start: http://youtu.be/MkaQ8r3kFBY There is another by Wouter which I just noticed (bedankt Wouter!) it is more exciting as it shows the cars leaving for the Tour de Bourgogne: Will try to post another from my cell, also of Sunday morning, if anybody has others yes please:-)! Have been looking at the photos of 2 of the 3 photographers, great stuff will post little by litte and compose discs for participants with general folder and some of your own car. best regards, Marc

Just 2 photos bracketing the event:
On Thursday (and Friday since some arrived only Friday as per their choice) I was terrified of cell phone calls saying we are stranded on the Auto/bahn/route/strada and Philippe and I waited 2 hours before a single Khamsin showed up (except one of the Austrian cars which had arrived the day before)...then JW and his wife arrived in 351 a car I was very happy to see because it is the one of the 6 part restoration article in Supercar Classics back in 1986, the first ever K resto and a car which he reawoke from a 10 year slumber, like sleeping beauty just for K40. This first photo with the car tiny symbolizes how it all happened out of nowhere thanks to everyone's enthusiasm: merci! Soon after that the cars arrived in droves: amazing:-)! The second photo is the group of hardy souls who stayed till the end for the Meursault visit which was excellent! best regards, Marc

Amazing pictures of what must have been an amazing event. It's things like this that make me miss living in Europe. Hat is off to you, Marc!
I always thought it a pity my car doesn't have the fender badges. So, they fell off? Really? Would be great, I have an excuse to put some new ones on!

Thanks Jack!
I just got the disc with 800 photos from Arnaud...and forgot to have lunch:-) Fabulous shots as are those of the other photographers, will post a selection after I resize them (and lunch!). Wouter great shot with the shoes, I think Wil's gift idea to Gandini is hilarious:-) best regards, Marc PS: John in Danemark: your measurements are correct but some others were wrong. 1300kms north (more or less) minus 7 days and you could have been with us;-) just teasing, can't wait to see your car! MS

Some more shots from the event. Note how different the prototype interior was from production. Sorry about the action shot through the windscreen, was a little difficult due to bumpy road surface.

Hello all:
Local Dijon paper reports about the "Khamesin meeting"(!) best to have a sense of humor about anything they write if you read French, clumsy reporting. http://www.bienpublic.com/fr/Search....12&y=8&x=1&y=1 Graeme you can ship your car from Sydney now so it arrives in time for Khamsin Cinquanta in 2022;-) This is just a joke there is no other event planned for now. Here is the shot of your sunvisor so everyone can admire it: will post it today for its return journey acroos the globe! Plenty more photos later today, promised, including protoype interior, am catching up with emails! best regards, Marc
