Or the Grand St Bernard pass perhaps? 2019 is the 50th anniversary of the Miura getting trashed, after all

Yeah that's the pass I was thinking of. Then it's straight into Turin .the problem is,I Really want to do the other two passes too .

sounds like the middle week will be spent travelling over all the passes

Sounds good to me

and me

And me - although unlike you fuel-injection boys I will probably be chugging away with around 20 bhp at altitude - carbs only work efficiently at one altitude, sea level in my case

Don't forget we have to come back, surely we can do a different route?

Fair point Keith . Plus going up hill will probably be safer for me

Lot peeps
This came up on my Instagram feed. So I thought I best post it up here

Doesn't look like an easy place to park at

Thankfully the carparks below the drone crazy place to put a hotel tho

Oh I don't know - for petrolheads it might be quite fun, although I suppose you have to put up with motorhomes and caravans and stuff most of the time!

It's a really good photo, looks completely surreal. You've been checking out places to stay, obviously

Morning

Yes ,but as that hotel is famous it comes at a price. But I did find some really well priced places before and in the middle of some of the passes too plus one just down the road from the Ferrari museum .

I’m glad the idea has generated some interest I’m sure between us all we can come up with a superb route and itinerary.
Looks like I’d better get on with the Sud if I’m going to get it finished in time.

At least I've now got a current passport - check your expiry date....

mine expired in '05

Italian Road trip Mid 2019 you say !! Seems like a good idea at the time
Better pull my finger out .

A few of us with that thought in mind Lou

Yep

Right, I'm committed now!

New car purchased, collecting as i write, not illegally of course, purposely chosen for the road trip.

Should make a good rolling resto, i must not take it all apart! Lol!

Pics or it didn't happen.

Now that IS commitment. I like your style

One of these has been on my shopping list for years, finally the stars aligned for once and the opportunity was grabbed!

Looks nice with the 5-spoke Revos. Not 4WD by any chance???

No, not 4wd for me, give me all the power and I'll sort the steering out!

The 14" rfx will be coming off and for sale just as soon as i can have it rolling round on something else.

I've earmarked some 16" borbet A's, or 5 spoke 155 speedlines as possibilities that i have already in stock, but time will tell and i could easily change my mind!

Sportwagon very nice shrew

Looks smart mate, room for a few spares too

Im hoping not to need any spares, got till next year,

All will be good!


Famous last words!

Love the SW mate.
My old S2 Veloce had those wheels and was the same Champagne colour.
