Took a few minutes out on a trip to a business meeting to grab a few shots of this awesome collection of planes and automobiles.
This is fast becoming an expensive lens (even on "fleabay")
This lens captures incredible detail and colours

It's a superb lens, certainly my choice on a visit to somewhere like The Shuttleworth Collection, which I have yet to visit.

Some of the old Tokina RMC lenses like this one are surprisingly good.
BTW, well done.

Hi Kryss
No it is not a Lagonda, but a 1937 Railton
Below is the detail from the Shuttleworth website
"
This Railton was acquired by Richard Shuttleworth in the late 1930s and by1939 he’d started to build it as a two seater open sports car. After his death in 1940, Dorothy had it completed by Blanchflowers of Kettering and used it to commute to London for her work with the Red Cross.
The car was sold in 1952, but in 1976 it was purchased by Richard Shuttleworth’s niece, Princess Charlotte Hohenlohe von Langenberg, who had the car restored and exhibited in her husband`s motor museum in the Schloss Langenberg in Germany.
