The Goodwood Revival Meeting takes place from 12-14 September and once again there will be plenty of 1940s, ‘50s and ‘60s icons for all to see on the track. Some of the highlights will include:
- 60 years of the Jaguar D-type with one of the largest gatherings of D-types in the world including the Lavant Cup, to feature 23 of them, and a pair of parades with a staggering 33 machines.
- Fifty years of Bond film Goldfinger with Pussy Galore’s helicopter and a special golden Aston Martin DB5 taking centre stage in the Freddie March Spirit of Aviation exhibition and Earls Court Motor Show respectively.
- Fifty years since Sir Jackie Stewart was ‘discovered’ driving at Goodwood, celebrated with a parade on each day of 23 of his competition cars – including the Cooper F3 car he first drove at Goodwood in 1964.
- Fifty years since the summer of ’64 saw the Mods and Rockers duking it out at seaside resorts across the south coast of England, with a Brighton Pier installation and a Friday morning parade, led by Quadrophenia star Phil Daniels.
