Fiat Barchetta Sandy Lane Newcastle and then Southbound A1

[Dollyman1850]

To the Fiat Barchetta Owner from the person you probably thought was a loon in the Silver Cayenne.

I was following you and noticed that your car was stinking of Petrol. I noticed that when you were accelerating there was an atomised spray of fuel coming from under your car… I hope you read this and find your problem before something iffy happens. thats what I was trying to stop and tell you.

If anyone on here knows a Barchetta owner in the NE Area..i would be grateful if you could pass on the message. There cannot be that many of them.

Cheers

I own 2 Barchetta's & someone has told me about this Pistonheads posting, what year was the car you seen & what time?
Don't worry sure it's not me as ain't been on A1 recently but another friend also has one Thanks

Was either a dark green or burgundy red (red Green colour blind) Sighting at approx 4pm yesterday. I didn't get the reg number. The Guy was driving from A19 link at Killingworth past Burradon to sandy lane, then down a1 from Gosforth Park in direction of metro centre. He realised I wanted to speak to him but carried on rather than pull off to park up in a safe place. Definitely fuel coming from the underside of the car when he accelerated away from junctions etc.

Wow thats close to where I have my business, my Barchetta's are 1 Grigio Silver & other Nero (Black)

The one you seen would have been Green if that helps with your colours but I dont know any Green local owners.

Rare not to stop though as these cars do get lots of attention so often get a toot etc (often owned by very nice people like me ha ha)

100% not me I was in my 911 C4s Cabby in afternoon but if I see you in your Cayenne I will wave
