The final All Italian car Meet of 2019 is on Saturday 5th October from 10 am.

it's usually a very relaxed morning attended by a wide selection of Italian cars and their owners.

Details here,

It will be good to see you all.


16VT and X1/9 1500 + e208 Peugeot

I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
I even unplugged my own.

Will be in the daily driver I’m afraid as the Coupe hadn’t enough capacity! Spending a week near Wroxham

At the risk of being drummed out of the Club, I have bought another car today. A 3 year old Abarth 595,but not the 180bhp boy racer version. It’s a fantastic little car. The Coupe has failed the MOT with some welding needed on the rear sills but when all is sorted I will most likely try to sell it but am in no rush. The smaller car will also free up a bit more space in the garage which I could do with. Will still be able to attend the Departure Lounge in future in the Abarth but sadly not until next year now.

John, sad news your coupe has failed it's MOT and sadder news you're thinking of selling. Plus side you have 595 as you know I have one and love it also.

Sorry to be off topic but kinda like the 500 Abarth myself (although have to make do with a 1.2 at the mo rolleyes) and the entry level would probably do me fine. Worried about the harsh ride though but funnily enough found out that may Abarth owners are now replacing the stock rears with coupe bump stops which offer better suspension travel and makes it a much pleasanter owner experience. This could tip it for me in the future smile
