Two spotted driving through Matlock Bath on Sunday - a very nice and clean red 20VT around 2pm driving through the main street, then a nice standard looking black one going the other way around 30 minutes later.

Didnt wave as i was a passenger in my mates Celica for the first, then on foot for the second. Both looked nice and clean though (more than can be said for mine right now..!)

Youre not the famous Hans??? as in James Hans...... are you??


Nah, that's not me.
Think we met you at a meet one time, did you have a black GT? Mine was black too with the anthracite GT3 wheels.

You'd have thought that after having a bloody Punto i'd have learnt.. Fiats have a certain shabby charm though eh?!
