100 Years of Alfa Romeo 2010
100 Years of Alfa Romeo 2010 / 100 Alfa's to North Wales & The Evo Triangle - Alfa Owner.com
On Sunday 16th May 2010 we will be holding a special road trip to North Wales with the finale on the Evo Triangle on the Denbigh Moors to celebrate 100 years in 2010 of Alfa Romeo.
The idea is to have at least / thereabout '100' Alfa's & other Italian Marques to hopefully include Abarth, Fiat, Lancia and maybe the odd more exotic to join us on the day as an overall celebration Italian cars. I have attached the link to the page on the Alfa Owner forum which was created on Thursday 7th January 2010 for owners to express if they would like to attend / the proposed route & rough timetable details herewith - www.alfaowner.com
As of general interest to Maserati Club we would like to invite any of your members who would like to come along to join us on the day.
We have also posted on the Abarth forum as a test bed with reference to other Italian Marques to joining us on the day. Some of whom have expressed an interest in doing so when we floated the idea in late 2009. Fiat Coupe's and Lancia Delta Inters/Evo's will also be coming along. Also in addition Auto Italia have been contacted and Mr Phil Ward (Editor) has emailed me back to let me know he will run a small piece in the News section within the Magazine on the lead upto the day.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for your time. If you require any further information. please contact and I will be more than happy to assist you.
