1931 Alfa Romeo 8C Le Mans

I took this photograph at Luffield corner during the Taylor Woodrow Pre-War Sports Car Race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1994.

It's the 1931 Alfa Romeo 8C Le Mans of Peter Groh and has an 8-cylinder inline 2,336c engine. It got the 'Le Mans' name after the 1931 Le Mans 24 Hour race was won by Earl Howe and Sir Stanley Birkin in one of these cars.
