Saturday   April 28th   2012

 

Although the weather was not always kind to us for our 10th running of this event, it could have been a lot worse: Some may remember the deluge of year one and the semi-deluge of year two!  Yet despite starting off a little damp we were still blessed with a super selection of two- and four-wheeled Italian transport which included some very uncommon examples.

                                       

As well as affecting some of the car entries the poor start to the day obviously had a bearing on motorcycle numbers, doubly a shame as this year more space had been allocated for scooters and bikes. In fact, on paper we were once again at full capacity and had been turning entries away, but while the early rain may have also put off some spectators their numbers soon increased to normal proportions.

                                  

Many thanks to everyone who brought an exhibit or who just came to spectate, to the Bristol City Council Markets Division and our Sponsors listed below and last –but most certainly not least- to our marshals.

                            

Awards were made in our anniversary categories covering Alfa 156GTA, Alfa GiuliaBertone, Lancia Beta, Maserati Merak and for our featured two-wheeler, MV Augusta and the recipients are shown below.
