BIAMF 2015.

Paul Hanmore confirmed this is still on and a provisional date has been listed for the 25th April 2015, he'll make an announcement when they're in a position to accept entries so more to follow on that.

If I can I'll be attending with my LE, just hope the weather is a little warmer then last year.

If you're interested in helping with the event on the day please email him at:

paul@italianautomotoclub.co.uk

I'll look to attend again Joe, so I'm in.

Excellent Dan, I hope we get a bigger Coupe turn out in comparison to last year as I think there was only three.

Attending:

1/ CC
2/ Hovedan

Where abouts in Bristol is it Joe?

Only a few hours from me plus I can see some of the family too

They hold this on and around the Corn exchange road system.
We get there early, park up on the pavements and join maybe 200 other Italian car and motorcycles owners, it's well worth it if you've never been.

Ok count me in!

1/CC
2/Hovedan
3/Carlscott

Been before and a lovely day out! Will be the excuse I need to get the car in tip top condition.

An update email from Paul Hanmore this morning.

----------------------------------------------------------

"We are preparing for the 2015 Festival and the date chosen is Saturday 25th April. However, just as we were set to invite entries we were advised by Bristol Council that they had not yet set their 2015/16 budget and until they had, they would not be able to commit to supporting the Festival as in the past. We will make an announcement just as soon as we know of the support the council can give us. Hopefully, it will be that we are in a position to accept entries".

Things are looking up for the BIAMF

The Club's email address was sent an email from Paul on Monday regarding this event Joe, so it looks like it's pretty much going ahead

Will all coupes attending travel together/ meet somewhere before hand Joe?

Carl we'll have a meeting point just outside town and travel in convey as to make sure we all park together.

I've sent my application this morning with a note to question 5 letting Paul know that it's the UK 20th Anniversary of the Coupe this year.
I hope we get a spot closer to the exchange building as we've been poked down the side lanes for a few years now.

Can others mention the Anniversary with their applications please

Will do

Done

Application all sorted, information packs will be sent out the third weekend in April

Paul is keeping the 20th Anniversary in mind but can't promise a prime spot for us. We'll have to wait and see where they're placing us when we get our info packs.

Paid up

Will be my first coupe meet so I shall look forward to it!

Info packs should be with us soon

My plan is to grab a late hotel deal in Bristol the night before so who's up for a curry and a pint?

Tempting...

Got family in Bristol, would save the earlier start on the Saturday morning.

Updated list for the show this Saturday, fingers crossed the weather stays warm

1/ CC (Vinci LE)
2/ Hovedan
3/ Carlscott (Electric Blue Plus)
4/ Rush
5/ Rickyboy
6/ robflow
7/ coupedummy
8/ davep

Travelling with my brother on the Friday evening now. Think we will be staying in Alverston premier Inn

Cool

My info pack arrived this morning so I'll have a read later to see where we'll be parking.

We're in St Stephen's street which is an excellent spot to be placed

Is it on the 25th still? Will look to make an appearance, and try to find you guys!

I'm be taking my coupe again. So is there a plan to meet up and drive into Bristol in convoy?

Lets all meet in Bridge street which is nearly opposite the the entrance of St Nicholas street by the lights, there's only a few of us so plenty of room.

We'll be parked up on St Steven's street Mark.

Meeting early I presume?

We need to arrive before 10am so lets say meet in Bridge street at 8.30am?

Yeah that's good for me

good for me too

More pictures of cars to follow.

Have you got any more pics yet, Joe?

Or are you stuck in a real ale and pole dancing club?

(Big cities like Bristol have these, right)?!

I took a couple.



Best of all was this (very) little beauty tucked away by the toy stall.

I did end up enjoying a pint of real Ale, just no pole dancers as I was accompanied by MrsCC

Here's some lovely examples, more in the link below.








..... and I went for a pint and within 30 minutes everyone went home




More pics of Bristol Italia 2015

That Ferrari, 599 is it? along with other mods was supercharged to 900 bhp!

With the twin super charge kit it's 800bhp.

I saw that sign on a rat look Splittie VW bus at Brooklands "Drive it day" this morning.

800 was it, either way that would be scary fast.
