Only 3 weeks left until my trip to lake Como and Lake Garda and the factory tour!! Cannot wait. Took the GTO out for a spin to check all was ok and to test which cases fit the boot- looks like we are going to have to reassess the luggage downwards!!! Car ran beautifully as usual and will get a thorough clean this week for its return to it's birth place. I am as excited as a dog with two appendages!!!!!!!!!
Don't forget to take lots of pictures!!!We're doing the exact same thing this summer, with Portofino, The Black Forest and several high Swiss passes thrown in for good measure

I did a similar trip quite a few years ago. You will love it.The factory was impressive then but will have changed a lot since I went.
I hope you are treating the wife to the Villa D'este at Como?
Where are you ataying at Garda? I went there as part of my honeymoon 2 years ago and stayed at the Lido Palace in Riva Del Garda which was superb. The German Ferrari owners club were staying there at the same time so lots of nice metal in the car park.

The drive through Sirmione to hotel is one you will remember - it's really tight with tourists everywhereWe are staying at Palace Hotel Villa Cortine in Sirmione at Lake Garda and yes Villa D'este at Como. Sounds like I have at least one winner!!!!
Parked up after almost killing myself and the car (and oh yes my wife!) crossing a road to park across the way. My fault but a momentary lapse in concentration!!
Just about to set off up the SP44 across top of mountains and switch backs hairpins from Como to Bellagio
Parked up admiring the views!!
Safe enough parked next to the local police chariot.
Not been out today except to get some petrol for tomorrow's run to Lake Garda. Two old gents at the petrol station were all over the car asking photos and a few high revs and I eventually got away after many shakes of the hand.
When I returned I saw this Danish Porsche with a nice plate outside the hotel main door
And when I went into under ground park I was in for a real treat with this immaculate DB5!!!
The best of Britsh and Italian car manufacturing together?
