Hi There i m planning a road trip taking in Spa, Nurburgring ,Southen Germany, Davos to Stelvio into Italy Lakes and Modena.

In Evo Nov 2004 there was a test with two Zondas which was done somewhere in Italy in exceptionaly beautiful mountainous terrain

Anybody know the location or area - I think it might have been in the dolomites but not sure.

Any help gratefully appreciated -this is the last one to box off before planning.

Cheers

More than likely the Northern Apennine mountains, south of Modena/Bologna.

There's a video of that run on Evo's website:

I don't think it is the Dolomites - the mountains are not jagged enough - I think it is likley to be the Apennines - as mentioned, if you drop them a letter I'm sure they'd tell you.

Pagani's promotional video was filmed in the Dolomites though - a fantastic region with wonderful mountains/vistas/roads - I spent a week there with my Elise inspired by another great article in Evo (link below) and would certainly recommend a visit there.
