I was not able to attend Auto Italia Canberra this year, did anyone make it? Big Alfa Romeo turnout? Anyone have photoes?

About 8 Vic Club members came up from Melbourne for the weekend.

One of our group, Marisa Gangemi was the official Auto Italia photographer.

Anyway to view these without the ridiculously huge copyright banner??
It's ridiculously annoying.

Paul Gulliver · April 23, 2012, 06:36:43 PM

Buy One. It will help defray some of the costs that go into producing them

Thank you Marisa for the service you provide with your special talents, and, the opportunity we have to view and acquire as we see fit.
Best Regards
Phil

Craig, those 'ridiculously annoying huge copyright banners', as you term them, are put there for a perfectly good and logical reason - to stop people from ripping off photographers. Why should photographers be expected to hand over the results of their efforts and experience for no return? Would you donate your experience, talents and work for nothing?

Wow! Nice to see a 90 there, i would have loved to look over the 155, has one anyone brought one to Australia yet with the V6 motor? I want one for my collection, i can not believe i missed the chance to view a SZ in real life, damn, would have loved to just sit in it, who owns that one, is it one of the Tasmanian ones?

VeeSix, if you can make it to Spettacolo in November, you may see a few SZ's (ES30) on show. Plus we did have a 155 in our Alfa "100 year walk thru history" and I understand that it is in Victoria.

Just need an RZ and we should have covered the lot !!!

Sorry Steve but i did not see any 75 and YES i like them & I'm a bit one eyed.

Steve S · April 27, 2012, 08:08:20 AM

I saw a 75 yesterday! A white one with 156 wheels broken down on the Western Ring Road!

ARQ164 Shane · April 27, 2012, 04:55:28 PM

hahaha yep , that would be a 75.
But that seeds more about the drive and the pretty light on the dash

Hello John
Thankyou for your reply

What date is Spettacolo on this year and where will it be held?

John Hanslow · April 30, 2012, 04:05:04 PM

In final stages of planning and pending confirmation of a suitable site.

Probably Sunday 18th November at Como Park, South Yarra. Like most things, there will be an attached story that will provided in due course under a suitable thread.
