Just recieved the mail below regarding the Auto Moto festival this year. I'm sure all who joined in last year will agree we had a really good Maserati turn out and most of us only got involved with around a month to go so hopefully we can have more get involved this year (OK i know I'm Maserati less at the moment but hopefull that will change soon). For anyone who didn't go last year it's a great day, if a little long, with all kinds of Italian machinery lined up in the streets of the old town in Bristol Italian style..with plenty of bars a resturants etc. Have a look at the Veloce web site below for more info (even used two of my pics on the site). This would be ideal for the April meet...
Bristol Italian Auto Moto Festival 26th April 2008
The local sections of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club and the Ducati Desmo Owners Club, together with Bristol City Council, will again host the annual Bristol Italian Auto Moto Festival from 11am. to 4pm. on Saturday 26th April 2008. Following the same successful format as previous years, the event will bring some of Italy’s most desirable and charismatic cars and bikes into the heart of the Old City. The streets will be closed to traffic, creating a pedestrian friendly zone where the cars and bikes, parked ‘Italian style,’ may be safely viewed. The event's display streets also feature some great restaurants, pubs, cafes and the Saturday market stalls. This is going to be a show not to be missed! Admission is free of charge both to entrants and spectators.
Fiat will be the Featured Marque of the 2008 Festival with the a celebration of the 500 model at the centre of the show! We will mark the 51st anniversary of the 500 with a range of examples to span the years including some of the brand new Nuova 500 models. We will also feature a wide range of other charismatic Fiats of all ages to set the streets alive with Italian chic and design flair. Why not make a note in your diary to 'come on down' and take part in the best free Italian vehicle festival in the country? For news updates see: www.aroc-uk.com/gloucesterandsouth/
