For fans of all cars Italian, Brooklands are holding their annual Auto Italia this coming Saturday, 2nd May.
Details can be found on their site: Auto Italia Day
One of the biggest events of the year at Brooklands celebrating the UK’s obsession with all things Italian. This will be Auto Italia’s 30th Spring gathering - the UK’s first and finest all-Italian car event. Expect the site to be bursting with all types of Italian cars (and motorbikes).
This year’s event is supported by prominent UK Ferrari specialists Hoyle-Fox. They will be displaying the Concours Ferrari 330 GTC as shown on the front cover of the May issue of Auto Italia magazine. It is hoped that they will also show the recently restored rare right-hand drive Dino 246 GTS ‘Chairs and Flares’. We are delighted that the monster Il Drago Ruggente will be making a return appearance. This 27-litre Isotta Fraschini engined car is coming all the way from Sweden and will once again wow the crowds with noise, smoke and flame. The cars can be seen in action, both on the test hill and on the circuit belonging to Mercedes World:
Test Hill demonstration will be taking place, in addition to action on the Mercedes-Benz World circuit. In previous years there have been over 200 Ferraris alone! There will also be trade stands and club stands and to give you a taster photos from last years event can be seen on Flickr: Brooklands Auto Italia 2014
Unfortunately I won't be able to attend as I've a prior engagement but having been previously I wholeheartedly recommend it, you can spend hours there.
