Rotary Royal Windsor Jaguar Festival 2017

It was an absolute delight to attend the wonderful 2017 Royal Windsor & Eton club Jaguar Festival arranged by the Rotary club team.






Over 2,000 Jaguar cars joined the colourful parade on the high street of the historic town of Windsor in Berkshire, UK passing by the Guild Hall where superb commentary was shared by Jaguar teams.
As I am a member of Rotary I am able to attend any club in the world so of course I also attended the Welcome Buffet at the Castle Hotel with hundreds of Jaguar owners, businesses & the Rotary club team. I was also very fortunate to sit next to the Major of Eton so was able to network and share more info about my work with W1PR and Rotary International as an Image team member covering the UK.
On the Saturday Morning the Windsor & Eton Rotary club met to manage event duties together with the local council and police. I had a very important job collecting entrance charges & making sure visitors were met and advised accordingly about the event.
The whole event was managed beautifully and also gave me and all the guests a unique experience to see and even sit in some of the most treasured Jaguar cars in the world.
My special thanks to the members of the Windsor & Eton Rotary club that where so very very kind and helpful in every way I could ever image and so definitely worth a visit if you are looking to learn more about Rotary in the Royal county of Berkshire.

cap reveals the best buys among the prestige machines

The latest figures from cap reveal that the supercar market could offer a sound return on investment if buyers choose the right make and model.

Overall, supercar and some sports car used values have remained level in a depreciating marketplace, but some vehicles are enjoying strong appreciation.

Philip Nothard, cap consumer and retail editor, explains, “A savvy buyer would have earnt £18,500 buying a Mercedes Benz SLS in 2014 and selling it a year later with 10,000 miles on the clock.

“For buyers looking for a comparable investment today, they should consider the 65 plate Ferrari 488 GTB Coupe, which cost £182,809 from new but in just six months amassing 5,000 miles it would retail at £215,500 – this is an increase of 17.8% or the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Coupe, which has increased by almost £5,000 in six months from £100,055 to £104,750.

“The supercar market is very niche, with a limited number of models available to choose. However, with some proper research, buyers can benefit from the buoyant market. It’s all about finding the right car, and those that are most sought after, bring the greatest returns. Another excellent example is a six month old Porsche Cayman Coupe 3.8 GT4 with a mileage of 5,000, which has appreciated by 38.4% from £64,451 to £89,250 proving that investing in these cars can be a lucrative option.”

Philip Nothard concludes, “The key elements of a good supercar buy are model, mileage and plates. For this reason, beware of clocked vehicles, as a lower mileage will get a better price, so dodgy sellers may be tempted to drop the mileage and duping buyers into paying over the odds.”
