Title: Great Western Italian Day, Gloucester Docks 11/09/2011 Post by: sparehead3 on 12 September, 2011, 11:04:58 AM Just to add to the write up of events, we had a nice time a Gloucester Docks yesterday : Delta integrale, Delta HPE, Aurelia B10, Montecarlo S1, Beta Spyder were present (as was the sun and the wind). Nice easy drive up and 'nicer' drive back follow Terry's spyder!

Brin Edwards car is a B21, with the 1991cc 70Bhp engine. I think the only way you can tell them apart, without opening the bonnet (including the B10 saloon) is that they have different top speeds on their speedometers!

Thanks Ade, I wasn't sure whether or not Brins was a B22, but it was definitely an Aurelia Berlina with a bigger engine, were there other variations?

(Only 81 were built)
Then there was the second series saloon, the B12 with 2266cc 90Bhp. Of course there are numerous coachbuilt saloons on Aurelia chassis as well.
