Scottish Italian Car Day

25-05-2008
As you will no doubt have seen from Painter Girl's thread the AROC Scottish Italian Car Day is on the 25th of May at Craigtoun Country park near St Andrews in fife.
AROC have very kindly extended an invite to Alfaowner.com to come along to the event. If we can give the AROC Scottish Section an idea of numbers they will provide a dedicated area for us.
This has always been a great and well attended event, as many of you already know. With cars ranging from the beautiful to the very rare.
So, to avoid having to park half a mile outside the park (as may had to do last year, due to the high attendance), Get your name on the list now.
This goes out, not only to the AOSS gang, but all.
Thanks to Fife164 for the invite
And to Painter girl for highlighting the event in my absence

Re: Scottish Italian Car Day

So what's the script? Admission cost, meeting point, contact numbers etc?

Don't want to turn up at the gate and be stopped by a feisty marshall who won't let me in without the relevant info!

You'll find the info you need here As to cost, sorry AROC haven't said yet (maybe they're letting us in for free )

I suggest meeting up at Petherham Bridge Car Park between 10.00 and 10.15.
My own attendance has become a bit doubtful at this point, but will do my best to be there.

Re: Scottish Italian Car Day

The cost is set by the park, not the organisers, I believe its exactly the same as public admission, so no freebies.

its really easy to get to, if you are coming across the birdge you head for the coupar angus road through 2 sets of lights then turn left onto the perth rd, you will see the hotel on the left and the car park is just before the hotel entrance
