uncle silvia Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I went on a holiday with the missis in May this year (yes I know I'm a bit slow at posting this), and was always armed with my camera!! Between seeing the sights I did a bit of Retro car spotting and this is what I found ............... The Fiat 500 Collection And the rest.......... What is this?? There were 8 of these in a row!!!! http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549254_5362.jpg http://photos-h.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549311_525.jpg http://photos-f.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549293_8084.jpg http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i57/Jagman6/Random%20Cars/RomeHolidayMay2008404.jpg http://photos-f.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549261_7479.jpg http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549306_8658.jpg http://photos-b.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549257_6215.jpg Traveling in style http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_549302_1241.jpg Also the Missis was reading the inflight mag on the way there and in the small print spotted a "festival of speed" at one of the art galleries in Rome! Luckily she "let me go" We were unsure as to what we would find and expected just a few paintings and sculptures on the subject................ How wrong were we!! http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v255/66/1/511144091/n511144091_525008_6657.jpg Unfortunately we were not allowed to take any photos inside, but I did manage to pull these pics off their website!!

Split_Pin Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Fiat 1100/1300 estate by the looks of it. Great spots, I love the Mehari and al the 500s! My parents are in Italy just now, as always I tell them to look out for and photograph 'old cars' and they usually come back with a few nice pics for me. Their latest report is due soon.
