Re: Just Moved to Italy - Looking for Beater Ferrari..
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: enio45</div><div class="ubbcode-body">u have to get a vespa for the local, quick trips :-)
i had a nice alfa 166 - fiat punto and 2 vespa's for kicking around.....
fiat 500's are a nice fit as well :-) : not performance oriented but typical car
sounds like fun - i lived in Milan and traveled to Turin every week.......mostly drove the 166, but did the train periodically
itching to do a trip back to the home country - - have a handful of vintage ferrari parts to look for
my family is from Frosinoni - 1.5 hrs south of rome...
</div></div>
Eddie -
Frosinoni isn't too far from me. Right now I'm living in Gricignano and working in Lago Patria. We're looking for a house to rent in Lago Patria; should be moving in next month.
Do you still have any relatives here? Anyone connected with the vintage car scene?
Let me know if you need any help scrounging Ferrari parts.
On the Fiat 500 and Vespa, I'm 6'4" and 230 lbs; not sure I would fit in a Fiat 500 or on a Vespa, and given the way the locals drive, I think I would want something more substantial if I got into a fender bender!
Thanks,
Scott
