Brooklands Auto Italia report now available

[Colin]

One of the largest gatherings of Italian cars in the UK, the Brooklands Auto Italia event took place on a bitingly cold, and slightly drizzly day last Saturday at the historic Brooklands site. A very diverse collection of vehicles turned up, including 5 Lamborghini Aventadors, a Ferrari FF as well as a 599 GTO and a couple of F40s, almost every different model of Lancia made since 1960, a lot of Fiats and Alfa Romeos, 35 Abarths and the only Autech Stelvio known in Europe (or maybe even outside Japan).

Love the '75. Such a unique design. When I was growing up these were all over the place. Now? None.





To me this is the most beautiful Ferrari ever. The 250 GT.  





Ah, the Fiat 130 Sedan. Love it.  





I want a Lancia Beta HPE!!!  





I love the Biturbo. My favorite Maserati ever, especially in 1st generation coupe form!  

I actually saw a Biturbo convertible today!!!

Great pictures!  Thanks for posting those Colin.

I like the new FF a lot, and the Aventador is a slight to behold.  But if i have that kind of money, I'd have a hard time getting anything other than a 458 Italia.  Just seems like that's the most focused Ferrari they make.  If I'm going to get a Ferrari, I want something mid-engine.  A grand touring, front engine Ferrari just doesn't appeal to me the same.  I saw the F12 when I was in Geneva.  Cool car, but still not as lust-worthy as the 458.

Absolutely love this color combination!
