Introduced to this web-site at Silverstone Classic.
A photographer of theirs took photos of the Club Stand and admitted to be properly into Italian cars!

Nice site. Enjoyably written and they display a reassuring loathing for the new Mini, although they do have a bit of an unhealthy obsession for Alfas. They've featured the alluring rear-end of Harvey's Gamma in the report (http://www.dep-o.co.uk/page393.asp) on the 2010 Bristol event.

I'm probably going to get frowned upon for saying that I have a strange attraction to the rat-look. Although some of us don't have to try too hard with their cars to achieve it.....but would I be brave enough to turn up to the AGM with a rat-look Dedra? Maybe

Meh. My car has a suitable foreground of a commercial waste bin and a background of scaffolding with rubble chute!

I would say that that was the Ser II owned by Marcus, which I believe is en-route
to Hong Kong.
Marcus now has the stunning dark blue Ser I with the electric blue interior
(winner at this years AGM)

A fellow car nut in the office owns this '67 VW. Quite cool. But not Italian.

I had an automatic fastback in the late 70's (company car) EMR ---  she was called "emma"
fun in the rain as the vent system used to send steam onto the windscreen

No unfortunately it was from the days when I actually had to work for a living,
it was followed by a new Talbot sunbeam 1.6s great little car.

Ooooooh - A Sunbeam .

My respect for you has just increased to ever greater levels Geoffrey.

When I was just a little lad (yes, there was indeed such a time) and in the days before my parents drove Lancias, (and mother had a Humber Sceptre  :-[ ) I thought the "new" Sunbeam was the best and most beautiful car ever, and I really, really wanted a 1.6S.

Thankfully, we then discovered Lancia and the rest is history!
