Where did you come across the Sebring Paul?

Hi Miles,

We came across the Sebring in the glamorous location of a service station, which we had stopped at. Two guys were on their way back from the International Maserati event in Austria and we bumped into them a couple of times that afternoon and on each occasion they had their heads under the bonnett adding oil!

The car was in very good condition too

What a fantastic event and such a glowing success. I was sorely tempted. Sorry to have missed it but am very pleased for everyone who participated.......... Some of the very best times I have had with my QP have been on Forum events eg Bristol, the Lake District and France.

Best wishes,

Paul

Ah of course, I'd forgotten it was the Annual International meet. I think I saw that car a couple of years back at a UK meet and if it is the same one, then yes in great condition. Not restored, but just very well looked after.

How was Florence Enzo?

Thanks for the photo's Enzo and Marcos, looks like a great trip and I'll look forward to further details............red light district?.............

Hey Miles...she was an absolute delight only glitch was the passenger window decided not to work on an occasion, simple case of seating the connector properly and it was sorted.

...red light district....well, just happened to be the location of one of the hotels we stayed at, nice hotel and plenty of kebaps and hookers around to satisfy a small army

Guys,

Enzo, Lewis, thanks for making the trip and sharing the photo's...

When you next start to plan an even greater extravaganza across europe please remember to give me timely notice,,, I will make every attempt to fly over and join you, and hire something interesting to do it in... your cars gentlemen look awesome...!!!! I am not surprised Enzo was blown a kiss in a car like that.... I have had a number of drivers waving and laughing and jumping up and down with joy when following me in my car. My neigbour claims to have heard my car across the valley with its larini's in full song... I doubt it, but he is very insistant.... in his view.

I can imagine Enzo was in automotive heaven with every turn of the wheel.... I know I would be..

Ozzie

We certainly intend to do it again Ozzie...and shall keep you posted...it was a very good trip, plenty of great driving, but also lots of very good meals, sightseeing and general relaxation

We did just over 1600 miles Newton, not 100% sure about the fuel cost, would say between £500 - £600 ish...

Excellent news Enzo. I'll look forward to seeing her soon.

 

[dem maser]

its £500 for the journey?? the 3200 will be £700.........

 

[Parisien]

If you do Monaco Dem....its 900 odd miles there...plus 150 detours........equals 2100 at 17 per gallon.........works out around £750 ish!!!
