Hi all...

Who's coming to this?

Is there any kind of a convoy organised for the drive up?

Am I right in thinking Fabio Lamborghini and Christina are going to be there?!!!! biggrin

Sounds like a blast. Will there be tales of drunken shame to tell on the Sunday evening?! lol

I might need to get a Ghostbusters thing going on for the Ghost Walk though! hehe

Friday 4th - Sunday 6th September.

...but you can do as many or as few of the days / evenings as you please - eg you could do the whole lot or just turn up on the Saturday and stay over (etc)...


Also, I don't think it's an exclusive event - I think it's open to non-club members / friends / FMLB-ers...

We're working on a convoy - one on Friday from Ragley Hall to Stratford, for a start, then another for anyone going to Stratford just on Saturday and then another from Stratford to Studley on Sunday. Yes, Fabio and Cristina are coming and yes, it is open to non-members whether guests of members or not - we're very welcoming and hardly judgemental at all, maybe just mental! Roll up - we'd love to see y'all! Contact Lynn D via the website or anyone via this forum for more info. Ant

We've just had an offer today from event sponsors AON to buy some bottles of Lamborghini wines as special prizes for Saturday evening! thumbup

Now all we've got to do is find whoever it is that stocks Lamborghini wines in the UK these days - if only to save a phone call to the Lamborghini vinyard in Umbria!

I tried them first (and found out that the original owner isn't there anymore either...) and they haven't got any in stock at the moment!

They used to advertise with LCUK for a while. I bought a crate of the excellent 2003 Torami from them, though it didn't last at all well as the bottles were unable to resist being opened by a very determined drinker (ahem...)

La Fiorita Lamborghini's website lists the current UK stockist as a business in South Norwood so I'll give them a buzz tomorrow, maybe catch them testing some wines in the sunshine that you'll all be having down there you lucky people...

...thanks for those links Andrew - will be checking them on Monday - the 'official' listed importer may have been asleep today as far as I can tell!


Meanwhile, more people are booking - nine or ten at least via Petrolhead Nirvana today!

Wow, how cool is this. I live 10 mins from stratford and 5 mins from gaydon, so i'll definately come and check out the amazing cars. I think a couple of cars that i will be detailing (emerald detailing) will be going to this.

The parade through the town last time you were here was talked about for weeks after.

Mrs XXVIII and I stayed in a tiny hamlet quite near to Panicarola in 1996 and drove by one of the big Lamborghini signs probably twice every day... We thought it was just some very long range advertising since we knew the Lamborghini factory was hundreds of kilometers away and thought that Ferruccio Lamborghini wouldn't have bought a vinyard quite so far from the Emilia Romagna... doh!

We had a really great holiday in Umbria though. Obviously, as you live there Louis you don't need me to tell you it's a fantastic part of the world!

Even some of the lunchtime slices of simple pizza were almost worth the trip on their own and we seemed to be able to just drive into perfect parking slots wherever we went! The main car park in Assisi was heaving full of cars apart from what was probably the easiest and best slot to get into (ours...) and our visit to Gubbio was enhanced by the 'hop out of the very easily parked car and walk a few yards to a perfect coffee bar at 8.30 in the morning' factor!!
