Mille Miglia 2008         


"La Corsa piu bella del Mondo"
15-18 May 2008

"Yesterday evening, I felt a strong emotion as I saw automobile collectors from all over the world, leaving Brescia on an adventure of passion and love for the motoring world”, these were the words of Alessandro Casali, President of the Mille Miglia Organising Committee, on the Saturday morning, as the cars participating in this year's Mille Miglia were leaving Ferrara on their way to Rome.
