Where the hell did that event come from,it wasnt there before. The track is further down from the museum. Im pretty sure you dont have to pay the full amount to just visit the museum. Put it this way it would be crap for the museum business to prevent people going because theres an event on. The museum has a separate car park from the track. But I will call the museum to get a heads up and let everybody know. I'm having major issues with my own car at the moment but im trying to get it sorted for the meet.

I think it took us all by surprise...! :eek:

Thanks for offering to call them; and good luck sorting out the car...! (y)
 
I called the museum today and they said the track was separate so we dont have to pay anything just to get in. Was hoping to get my car sorted this weekend but no joy. It will be next weekend instead but its cutting it fine.



I looked at the museum linky @ palio posted.. seemed to be £10.. confused




a couple of quid is fine.. but I'd rather be outside having driven for 3 hours to get there..!! ; - }


what's up with your panda..??,

It is £10 Charlie - I know coz it says in the event description at the top. ;)

Tbh once I've found the facilities, food will be top of my list :yum:
 
Driving my alfa down from York tonight so possible i may come in that but its not running fantastic so i might have to leave it for another time to get the first non-fiat italian car to one of these i'm afraid :shrug:

All 3 of my cars are down there now though :D :woot:

Sorry to disappoint you, but the first non-Fiat Italian car won't be yours. There was an Abarth at the Silverstone meet.

And no it's not a Fiat before someone says that - it's a completely separate manufacturer according to the DVLA etc, and just happens to be owned by Fiat & uses a lot of Fiat parts (like an Alfa or a Ferrari :D ).

still hoping to get a Lancia / (Hummer) Ypsillon to attend though.., :cool:

OH yes - and anything available in only 2 door, Italian and less than 1500CC is a FIAT.. in my book :devil:
 
I think there's been a bit of confusion. You can park outside the museum for nothing. So attending this meeting will only cost you fuel money. The Grand Prix collection is £10 entrance fee. But its purely optional you dont have to go in.

I dont have a Panda anymore despite the old username. In fact I dont technically have a Fiat anymore, even though it is. At the moment im just having some same old problems with Italian build quality. Rizzla thin paint thats already stone chipped on a new car. Im getting it sorted and sorting out some prevention next weekend hopefully.

Fair enough, there was mention in the last meet thread of there having been one - and they are just fiats :p

You're right of course. Alfa is Fiat based but has a distinct sporting history a great badge and nice trim, whereas Abarth is err Fiat based, has a distinct sporting history a great badge and nice trim...... ;)
