Hello Italian car and bike lovers!

I know there are more than two of us on this forum!!

I am organising this event again at Hopetoun House South Queensferry Nr Edinbrgh and putting out information to give older people like me time to plan to attend! I have posted this on a few forums to gain as wide an interest as possible.

The web site for the event is:

www.italiancarandbikeday.co.uk

If you need more then please contact me in usual way
psantoni@btinernet.com
tel 07831467360

I know there are loads of old Italian cars and bikes in garages and lock ups. Time to get them out and running!!

We are trying to give Hopetoun an indication of how many may attend as exhibitors or even visitors so the catering/staff/toilets will be sufficient. Would be good if people could post here if they indent to come

We have a web site hacking problem by those Russian Virus Scammers, should be resolved quickly. Please don't panic if log on as is scam to make people buy duff software. Trying to firewall it to keep them out again.

Hi there
Hopetoun charge £5 per car to get in so in short yes we all have to pay to have our car in front of the house. Doesnt matter how many people are in your car it is still £5. The public who are visiting pay £3.70 per adult and £2.20 per child. Compared to most other events eg Autoitalia the entry price is actually very low. All the money goes to Hopeton as I am making no money from the event!! So far cost me a fair bit
Sorry that was no clearer

Met some Ferrari guys on sunday at Edinburgh Festival Cavalcade from over the border. Just to say you are all more than welcome and unlike those form further 'south' you don't need your passports to come to Scotland!
