    One of the stars of the Motofest was the Aston Martin Vulcan.

    The Vulcan is an "800+bhp" track car with a 7.0-litre V12.

    The Vulcan drew the largest crowds at the event.

    The Vulcan was "born out extensive motorsport experience", according to Aston Martin.

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Aston Vulcan front detail

    Aerodynamics naturally play a huge part, so the V12 engine is cooled through this low-but-enormous front grille...

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Aston Vulcan rear quarter

    ...and the car is held down by this massive rear spoiler.

    The interior is particularly interesting, simply because it's so futuristic looking!

    Not many people will see the rear of this when it's on the move!

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Aston Vulcan rear detail

    One of the coolest exterior details are the pin-sharp rear lighting, as LEDs are built into these little stalks.

    Along with the Vulcan, Aston Martin took it upon themselves to bring some greats from its history...

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Citroen e-Mehari front

    Citroen showed off its e-Mehari concept car - an electric buggy that harks back to the original.

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Citroen e-Mehari rear

    This example has two surfboards sticking out of it; a nod to the kind of person that would be driving one.

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - interior

    The interior is simple, which is probably to keep it waterproof!

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - BTRC trucks

    Although it was mostly cars at the event, there were some BTRC trucks there, too.

    These supermini racers were lined up along the slip road onto the sprint circuit.

  • Coventry Motofest 2016 - Triumph bikes
