EVENTS & TRIPS

MA1266 being a reliable and joyful toy is driven more than regularly eating between 5000 and 7000 miles yearly. Unfortunately, there aren’t not as many events as I’d like to join time being an issue at some point. On the top of that, travelling across Europe were B roads are of great quality and really rewarding for a performant GT and its driver remains my prefered fantasy.

June 2004 : Le Rallye du Cap Hornue, it is a small local event in the beautiful north of France I used to go every year. It was organized by an enthusiast collector who reunited multi-makes classic cars mostly Aston Martins, Ferraris and rarities oriented over a week-end.

April 2006 : Mortefontaine track – organized by a friend and great enthusiast, this yearly private event gathers only good friends who take their cars for the first run of the season. The Mortefontaine track owned by Pininfarina subsidiary Ceram is the longest around the Paris region with 3,23 miles.

June 2006 : Le Grand Prix de l’Age d’Or – Classic cars gathering around the Dijon/Prenoy track where races take place over the wee-end.

July 2006 : Le Mans Classic – We joined the Swedish De Tomaso club to Germany to go to the Nurburgring Track. From there we joined Le Mans Classic 3rd edition, in my opinion the really best classic cars event European wide.

September 2006 : Le festival de l’Automobile, Saint Cloud – A small event located in the suburb of Paris, classic cars gathering, elegance concours, hillclimb.
