    All Italian Breakfast Meet, Alton, Hants, Sat 6th April

    Unlikely I will be going now as the strong wind forecast for Saturday will disrupt the car ferry service across the Solent, even if I could now get a ticket at a reasonable price …

    All Italian Breakfast Meet, Alton, Hants, Sat 6th April

    Yes, I put up a post about this yesterday as many events are being cancelled due to the state of the ground being sodden. What is the state of the ground at the Departure Lounge given that we park up on the field?

    Events, dear boy, events!

    With so many events being cancelled due to sodden ground conditions, has anyone heard anything about the Departure Lounge meet on Saturday? I doubt the field we normally park on will be that great and there’s more rain forecast over the next few days, although Saturday does look dry …

    550 Maranello v 612 Scaglietti

    That's been in Autoficcina's showroom for a while, where it was up for £50k ... Not sure it will sell today but I'm watching with interest.

    550 Maranello v 612 Scaglietti

    In what way were they improved? Is it mainly the F1 system or does it go further than that? One reason I like the 456 is because they did it in GTA form with automatic box, thus avoiding the issues of early F1 systems.

    550 Maranello v 612 Scaglietti

    Yes, looks good. I know black on black is very contemporary but it doesn’t appeal to me very much. Makes the Autoficcina car look even better value, as this is a private sale and not taking any offers by the sound of it(?)! They’re going for less at auction ref. the blue one that went through...

    550 Maranello v 612 Scaglietti

    Autoficcina told me that it has a short MOT history here because it was initially registered in Northern Ireland, where it has history with Charles Hurst in Belfast … I still find the 612 to be a bit of an ugly duckling from some angles, I much prefer the design of the 456.

    550 Maranello v 612 Scaglietti

    Yes, I spotted that. I was thinking of going to take a look but unfortunately they weren’t particularly interested in my 3200 in px (made a scrap value offer for it) …
