We flew with Ryan air once and I'll never fly with them again, I said before I'd rather walk and that still stands as they're shite imo!

We're flying down to Nice with Easyjet, pick up the rental and then 3hrs to Turin so plenty of time to take in some sites and relax in the hotel smile

I know. I was somewhat perturbed when he said his car wasn't ready for the trip.

I'm wondering whether to bring a spare of everything in a trailer.

What's the max tow weight of a Coupe?

I've got all my spanners in the car... and the kinky black latex gloves!

All packed up and ready to go. Just a few last minute things to go in the car tomorrow, and a quick trip to the local car wash boys to get another layer of wax on it.

Shiny shiny.

I will have ten copies with me - twenty euros each (saving about two euros and the postage) (and meaning I don't have to mess around with change!).

Also - free gift for the first three (and I rather think Gimmo will be the first...)

Ah no, unfortunately my Italian is just about non existent, but it would be cool to try and meet up with Ettore and convoy in to lunch together! We can converse in the international language of the coupe fiat! laugh

Any chance you guys can start a thread for posting daily Pics of your journeys & locations during your trips to Turin/Torino and the Anniversary Meet.

That would be Cool cool

As some of you are leaving tomorrow....

I wish you all safe trips and hope you have a wonderful time.

Long Live the Fiat Coupe!

I've done that journey Joe but other way round for Monaco Grand Prix. Flew to Turin and drove to Nice(Hotel) and back in an Alpha 159 estate diesel hire car, which was not much fun especially as it was meant to be a BMW 3 series grr I have memories of a helluva lot of Tunnels at the Nice/French end which was tiring on the eyes going from light to dark and shades up/Shades down(unless you have those self adjusting ones) Much better as you head inland towards Turin.
Have a good one smile

Jake has never been to Monaco so we're dropping in to visit on or way back which were my reasons for booking a flight to Nice.
I've been a few times, F1 back in 1986 which was simply awesome with the noise. I bet the locals will be happier this year with the new quieter V6 cars.

UPDATE:

For those on the Chambery route on Friday, can we meet at the Aire du Granier on the E70 ? It is just south of Chambery, and has parking and fuel !

Shall we say meet Friday 30th morning at 8:45am ? Leaving by 9am at the latest. This should allow enough time to get to restaurant for lunch.

Aire du Granier

Hopefully a combination of Sat Navs and Maps will get us hopelessly lost safely to the lunch venue. wink

Sorry for double post frown

Boosted, where do you will sleep on tuesday night?

Ettore says that from Como to Biandrate meet, are 90km, but on morning highway to Milano is full of traffic!

You must start from Como at 8.30-9.00, to come to Torino without problems
