i know its abit of a trek to bristol and back ,even i know have to stop and have 40 winks. i got a reply from paul: Bristol Italian Auto Moto Festival Saturday 25th April 2009 Lancia to be the Featured Marque Lancia will be the Featured Marque at next year's Bristol Italian Auto Moto Festival to mark the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the original Delta model. The organisers are working with the Lancia Motor Club to feature a wide range of Lancias of all ages to make this a most memorable show. Once again there will be wide ranging displays of Italian cars and bikes of all marques and ages to set the Italianesque 'Old City' streets alive with Italian chic and design flair. All car entries must be pre booked (with full name, address, phone & mobile numbers and vehicle details - marque, model, year, reg. no.) to: biamf@ourhemanpal.co.uk or 0117 947 5814. If using a transporter vehicle please advise as it will also need a pass. Why not make a note in your diary to come on down and take part in the best free Italian vehicle festival in the country? This event makes for a grand day out just looking at all the exciting cars and bikes on display, chatting with the owners and making new friends. The City's shopping centre and markets are nearby and worth a browse too. Also nearby, the historic harbour is lined with attractions, museums, historic boats and ships including Brunel’s ‘SS Great Britain’ and a replica of John Cabot’s ship the Matthew. (A little known fact - in the year 1497, the Bristol-based Cabot sailed in the original Matthew to reach the North American mainland before Columbus!) If anyone requires further information or wishes to promote a product or company through the Festival, please contact the undersigned. Sponsors will receive a full 12 months of publicity on our website (under construction at present). Yours faithfully, Paul G Hanmore BIAMF Organiser biamf@ourhemanpal.co.uk or 0117 947 5814.

Title: Re: OH ! Bristol automoto festival sat 25th april 09 Post by: simon131 on April 21, 2009, 04:44:27 PM I think you've had some bad experience with bodged UK cars Sid. The "weld over" days are long gone. There are hammers and screwdrivers in the MoT Testers arsenal these days.

Bristol automoto festival sat 25th april 09 Post by: sid131 on April 21, 2009, 05:41:13 PM dont think so Simon they are far from long gone i have just finished 3 weeks of welding & repairing properly the said weld over, isopon & shutz repairs on a 1985 opel manta Gte with 10 months Mot ticket on it, a bloody disgrace, never let cowboys like that near your 131 Simon, we all know that the 131 suffers badly with the rust as did toyptas datsuns mazdas opels etc of the same era but no excuse for bad work, good luck & hope she passes.

Bristol automoto festival sat 25th april 09 Post by: simon131 on April 21, 2009, 05:57:56 PM The car has gone to a guy that both Theo and I have used for our 131s (and other Italian cars, in fact Theo's Gamma is also with him at the moment) for a good few years now, and if anything he's over cautious with the work he does for us. :) I took the Abarth to him for it's MoT three years ago and got it back 6 months later with a ?4,000 bill!! :o
I'm super cautious when it comes to people who repair my 'oldies' - I've been turned over before! :-\ |
