    Walking towards this entrance way made me feel like I did when I was a kid and my mother took me to the Father Christmas cave each year. The entrance made it clear this was where the real gems were kept. By the time I reached this area of the museum I'd been there for around 3 hours. I was really excited to enter.

    Once in this wing, the sense of drama heightens with the low lighting. Unfortunately for me, the museum had held a function just prior to my visit, and several of the very special cars had been pushed over to the right wall and cordoned off so I couldn't really get in to have a good look at them.

    CD standing for Charles Deutsch, this being after he and Rene Bonnet's partnership, DB, ended, their constructions were of course victorious in the Index of Thermal Efficiency at Le Mans several times with their 750cc powered prototypes, usually based on Panhard's
