Breakfast Club Gets Off to a Manic Start

The first of this year’s ten Goodwood Breakfast Club meetings got off to lively start on Sunday 7 March when an impressive selection of truly stunning pre-1973 classics, descended on Goodwood for the ‘Tax-free Sunday’ theme to help kick off the 2010 season.
The crisp blue sky started the first 2010-season Breakfast Club meeting and tempted many classic enthusiasts out of their long winter hibernation.

The owners and enthusiasts of the huge variety of classic motoring took to the picturesque West Sussex roads for an enjoyable Sunday morning drive, before displaying their machines at the legendary Goodwood Motor Circuit; home to many a Mini race in its racing heyday. The only taxing issue of the day was choosing what to have for breakfast from the tempting selection of Goodwood’s own organic fayre.



Amongst the various Minis, Lotus, Ferraris and Fiats arriving at the circuit, a special Goodwood display of interesting Pre-1973 classics including a stunning Ferrari 250 swd join the Breakfast Club crowd.
Many visitors enjoyed a hearty breakfast, made with Goodwood’s delicious home-reared organic ingredients.

Most Goodwood Breakfast Club meetings are held on the first Sunday of the month, with the next event, on 4th April, set to attract a wealth of Sporting Family Favourites,
