Goodwood Festival of Speed 2012 in photos and on video

Lots of photos of the action at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2012 and video of almost every supercar on show. This weekend has seen the Goodwood Festival of Speed weave its petrolhead goodness for the assembled throngs on the south coast, so we thought, especially for those that didn’t make it to car heaven, we should give you a taste of what you missed. So we have a big gallery of photos (and we’ll add more as they come in) of everything from classic cars to supercars.

Subaru Cross Sport Concept Bows at Tokyo

The Cross Sport Design Concept is an SUV/wagon body that rides on BRZ mechanicals.

But Volvo have been working an an alternative for the last 3.5 years which can potentially do away with the battery and instead store power in body panels. Volvo has built an experimental S80 which has body panels made of carbon fibre and polymer resins and structural super capacitors.
