Stunning view! Nice work keeping Rachel's sister on hand as well, Matt.

Tell me, though, is it as civilised as the views suggest or, somewhere in the background, is someone drawing a s***king c*ck on something?

As for you, Newton... relaxing?? Surely you must have found something that needed building, repairing or cutting into bits?

I'm not on this trip so the place is safe from s***king c*ck drawings!

Hmmm.... like no gears on the GS when we got out of the Alfa museum in Milan!!!! Started ok but wouldn’t give me any gears, 5 bleeps & a camboocorsa light! Did a 10 minute reset and got exactly the same... tried rocking it, all sorts and then revel the nuts off it and it cleared the cambiocorsa light but got an engine management light instead but a full box of gears so quickly got going to Lake Como! Won’t try running it tomorrow and if it is no go Saturday I won’t be too upset.

Suspect it is down on fluid somewhere.

We don't want another one down, Dave won't be able to contain himself!

Update; the fault has been diagnosed as a seized F1 pump and the bill to replace it was iro €2800. Fortunately the insurance company had agreed to repatriate the car the day before so my bill for replacement in the UK will be knocking a nought off the end. It just goes to show that screaming and yelling at frenchmen pays dividends! Also, what we saved in fuel costs will more than pay for it. Silver lining and all that. :)
