Alfa Romeo Entourage in Grandon's Mon 14th July

Just lettin ppl know in case they're interested as during one of my many visits there Ken Grandon told me there's an alfa entourage happening in Grandon's Mon 14th july. 2FM are going to be there so it should be impressive enough. Think it starts early that morn around 9 but can call Colette in the office to confirm.

Grandons:0214821874 (know it off by heart at this stage!)

Re: Alfa Romeo Entourage in Grandon's Mon 14th July

Good question!!!!!
To the best of my knowledge it's an exhibition or parade of alfas best n most expensive cars n maybe some classics. Don't hold me to that but thats what i worked it out to mean from what Ken told me.
Im hoping for some test drives in a Brera!!!!!! I could be bitterly disappointed!
Don't think 2FM would come to tell everyone abt Grandons usual range but stranger things have happened!

Also sorry didn't make the meet up a few weeks ago, had exams and work was in the way as usual! Saw pics, looked good! U going to British Motor Show???

I was there at dinner time, nothing special just a few more cars in the showroom than usual, mostly if not all diesels.

Re: Alfa Romeo Entourage in Grandon's Mon 14th July

Went there after work at around 4 so missed it too, asked what was actually going on and they said it was a group of like 6 ppl from alfa giving advice about the cars and you could ask them questions and so on but they were only there in the morn for few hours then went to Mahon Point and then to Crosshaven for Cork Week. Said they'd be back again today sometime but not trekking out there again....

Re: Alfa Romeo Entourage in Grandon's Mon 14th July

I was traveling to Cork early on Monday morning, a black 159 ti came off the motorway in Portlaoise and stayed pretty much either 100ft behing or in front of me the whole way to Glanmire, as usual I called into Grandons to avail of brekkie and a mooch around the lot, 159 guy stopped there too, within 30 sec of parking the car I was surrounded by three eager sales men all looking at my 156, and wanting to know if I was there for the "show". I hadn't a bloomin clue what was going on, I'm usually ignored when I'm in Grandons!!
