Re: Auto italia in Warwickshire! - 31/08/2006 06:03

Went Last year , hope the weather is better , was an ok event , good if you want to go onto the track but no photos or viewing of the track.

Re: Auto italia in Warwickshire! - 31/08/2006 06:10

how fast can you go on the track ?
Posted By: EDz

Re: Auto italia in Warwickshire! - 31/08/2006 06:32

There is a pace car on the track (its Aston Martins test track), Which sets the PACE , They will let you go pretty fast last here I heard they where having fun with a Ferrari, think the pace car is a Jag.

I will be there, but not in a Coupe.
Would have been there in my Coupe last year, had it not cracked an exhaust valve 2 days before the event
Instead I will be there in a real turbocharged speed machine.

Crazycoop - As you've got a Panda, you'll find plenty of other helpful Panda owners at www.fiatforum.com
I will be on their stand on the day at Gaydon. Come and say hello! I will no doubt be poring over the Coupes. I miss the extra 150bhp of the Coupe But I like the extra 43 mpg of the Panda

Boses are actually making me work today can you believe it the cheek of it!

BTW did anyone from here in a porto have a problem on the way home from the show yesterday? one of my mates in a punto rang me earlier and said that a porto pulled onto the hard shoulder in quite a hurry but there was a range rover behind them or something?

If it was a break down i hope it wasnt serious
and if it was cops i hope you wasnt speeding too much
