Time to come out

Well back in Blighty now after 2,800 miles to run it in.

Only one small issue with the clutch, which I hope is just an adjustment needed.

Had some great 'Car fun'...Played with the new small QP still in 'bin-bag' covers on the Auto Strada...they do flap about a bit at above 100mph!!! and he was miffed when I took him on the inside as he refused to move out of the way.

Test drove the new Fiat 500L on its dealer launch in the hotel I was at...looks sh**e, like one of those bloated MINI 4x4's...in fact it looks just the same.

Met some lovey guys and their classic Alfas at the same hotel, Enzo would have loved the 1960s ones there but sadly the light had gone so only one photo to post later.

Saw lots of rich people cars in Cannes, so many Bently's and 458's

Photos to come later in the week...now time for bed.

Sounds like a great trip Peter. Looking forward to seeing photos. Hope the niggle is nothing much.

I missed this thread originally...congrats on the new car.

I'm surprised I'm the first to ask, but do you have any more pics? Looks great in that one photo.
