24th May - Scottish Italian Car Day - Cairnie Fruit Farm

[lkc]

Thanks for that I better introduce myself then

Hi all I'm callum 19 live in aucterarder own a 59 plate Grande punto gp 1.4 8v I lowered it 55mm just put a set of rear fk 30% updated shocks got a ramair induction cone on it and a sportex rear 3 inch box and have a set of mtec dimpled and grooved discs and ebc black stuff pads on it the Windows are limo black got a 130db dual sub setup in the rear running 1200 watts and an alpine headunit that's it for now lol

to be honest I've never bothered with modifying my cars with the exception of changing the head unit but I appreciate the efforts of those who have the time and know-how to transform a car even if I don't agree with the end results - each to their own AFAIC as long as it's all legal

Anyway, we have a project section that you should post up more pictures in if you have the time

Is there any convoy arrangements for this? Cannot wait

 

[M21MFS]

Usually announced a little nearer the time, but we've convoyed in the past yes

 

[scoop_987]

cliodejaniero As mentions on SFE on Facebook, there will be a convoy I'll organise it nearer the time completely.

 

[lowered punto]

anyone coming from near perth?

 

[lkc]

Not that I know of...yet. The main convoy tends to travel up from the Edinburgh area rather than north but that's not to say there won't be one this year if there's a demand. It's fine if you're not in a convoy though as the site is quite easy to find and once you're there you'll be directed over to the fiat area by the marshals.

and with a modded car I can guarantee it won't be long before you have at least one person introducing themselves and checking out your motor if not more

 

[cliodejaniero]

Will someone have FS stickers? I forgot to get some at the glasgow meet

 

[lkc]

Yes, I'll have them with me and hopefully we'll be getting delivery of a new batch too. I'll either have them in the gazebo or in the boot of my car so look me out on the day.

Same for anyone else who wants stickers

Very nice, I do like the GPs in that colour. Wonder if this'll bring back a wee bit of nostalgia for @Ckem247

As for SCID, it runs from 11 - 4 however we'd like everyone to be on the stand by 10 am at the latest before the public arrives

 

[lowered punto]

ok no problem hope to be there between 9 and 9:30 just ordered a waxybox but its not going to be here in time so i need to get some other wax and fast lol

 

[Ckem247]

Love my gp its my second car and I loved my Clio but the punto corners like it's on rails plus I can actually fit in it as I'm just over 6ft and I used to bang my head off the roof in the Clio lol as for the corsa get rid of it there fast but built like crap compared to the punto's and they corner like a barge hahaha

My punto was class mate , there's a thread on it on the projects bit, nothing worked on it, but I loved it , and it's a Clubsport one mate , so it handles quality still don't love it but

 

[lkc]

With Brooklands out the way it's time to start getting the plans for this in place. Convoy thread will be going up very shortly and we'll sketch out a rough timetable for things like the group photo and a general gathering. This should be an excellent show with lots of fabulous motors for you all to admire. It's well worth the trip

 

[cliodejaniero]

This seems to be dragging in lol, iv bn waiting for this for ages haha. Still enough time to get bits n bobs sorted on the Doctor but she shall be ready

 

[lkc]
