I don't think the article did it justice. weird mention of loads of crashes. and did they get lost?, no lake gardia on our saturday drive. Still good photos and 3 pages, can't complain.

I didn't think it was too bad a piece to be honest.
They slightly misquoted me, nothing too serious, I guess just making my quotes fit in with the tone of their article.
The 'lots of crashes' bit was a bit disingenuous, but to be honest I feel that the crashes brought more charachter to the meeting, it made it more human, more real.
The one thing that annoyed me was that they did not name check either Furio or Beppe. In the quotes I gave them I made specific mention of the Italian guys on several occasions and mentioned the huge input that they had.
Overall though, like Scott, I feel it is a pretty reasonable article.

Teee heee! there I am in my yellow tshirt in the middle of the big pic! Ok, there's only a few pixels of yellow - but it's there!
Agree it somehow doesn't capture the magic. They should have had at least 1 photo of the cars in convoy taking in the hairpins....

clearly the snow carpark pic is the main one. I think you might see a few pixels of black behind me...thats Mrs AndyS2000 (aka Maryam).
If anyome wants me to sign their copy...... (I think the fame is going to my head.......)
They should have mentioned the clutch casualties !
Guiness, hope you manage to get a copy of the pic.! good luck.

I have finally heard back from Auto Express regarding purchasing individual copies over the 'phone.
This can be done by 'phoning Dovetail, their fulfilment company, on 0844 844 0026 quoting the issue number 1,062
