Just popped in to say hi............

Hey all, I just have gotten back from my tour of Rome and thought I would let you guys know how I'm doing.............

Well before I got to Italy I spent two weeks in London, where there was nice cars aplenty, but the weather was pretty lousy compared to Taurunga.

Well anyway I reached Turin two weeks ago and started my new job, even got to meet the head of FIAT well anyway I like many other bean-counters, have been given the challenge of bringing FIAT out of the red (They couldn't have picked a better person to do )

As far as my rides go, I have aquired a Red Alfa Romeo 156 V6 2.5, curtosey of FIAT, which I am sorting some mods for, I will keep you posted on that, while back home I scrapped the Cosmo and flogged the Pug off for $82,900 which may sound expensive but the mods bought up the value, while the 2002 is in the hands of some fellow 2002 owners. I also hope to invest in a Maserati Ghibli and turn it into a track racer and get my racing "career" back on track..........

Another aim is to get my own internet account and stop using my parents XTRA account and replace all my plugs, so they can fit in these stupid European bplug sockets........

Well later guys, I have been driving all night and it is time for some sleep............

Oh and just ignore Jared, he just loves attention

bah, I have had too much coffee to sleep.......so

Yeah I met Mr. Cantarella, just a week before his resignation, I 'm still awaiting the announcment on my new boss, but I'm a patient Kiwi bloke, I can wait..........

I haven't really paid any attention to my name though

As for the cars, most of them are FIAT's and rusted out ones at that, but there are a few Ferraris patrolling the streets and Alfa Romeo's, Lancia's and a few Lambo's here and there, nothing special, although, while in Rome I caught sight of the new Mazda 6, with what looked like German number plates

"Just a few Alfa's, Lancias, Lambos... Ferraris... Nothing special. Damnit Jimmy, are you going to tease us with all the Euro cars now??

As for the Maserati, all I have to say is Asento Corsa (I think somthing like that )
