Overall winner, Bernard Consten, Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato

What a superb film. An unmistakable Malcolm Arnold musical score There are many elements of his music for Dunkirk (1958) and The Heroes of Telemark (1965) as well as his Dances (English, Scottish, Cornish, Irish and Welsh).

Excellent film, could do with more of this kind. The music sounds like it`s been taken from the the St Trinians films and Albert RN.

incredible in largely standard factory saloons, loved to see the Austin A90 Westminster 6cyl. 2.6 hauling up the passes, basically an A.Healey 100/6 with a saloon body!

Awesome, wonder what those roads are like now, probably totally sanitised, what an adventure!

Yeah, would be great fun driving them in my own old-ish Alfa 😁

So true, the film is really a timecapsule in a way.
