Hi to all
This weekend has been the first time I have had the time to drive one of my GTA turbo’s around (GTA50V) since buying it in November last year and very pleased I am too with the way it drives, I gave it a major service last week which included new brakes, two new rear tyres and the alloys refurbished plus some minor repairs that needed attention. I hope to see some club members soon at the various meetings/shows and I am looking forward to the drive to the classic 24hr lemans in July. 8)
Here are some pic’s I took this weekend

.......Martin, you are always asking members to post their Alp pics, but you have not posted a pic of your 610 yet......surely you have had time to wash and polish it by now....which was your last excuse for not doing so some time ago :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:oops: :oops:

Guilty as charged, truth is I'm a lazy barsteward, had the car 6 months and I still haven't polished it yet :lol: My new excuse is that I want to (before I take pictures) replace the stoved in lower front spoiler with the one I got from Mr Dini 5 months ago :lol: Need some ramp extensions or a scaffold board as it's too low to get on my ramps.

I know that feeling i had a mate of mine fabricate me some ramps from some old HGV trailer chassis rails weigh a ton but height is 14 inch and the ramp's disconnect from the stands, ramp length is 4 inch shorter than the wheelbase of the GTA fantastic to use! Only wish i had the time to use the damn things and get the car back on the road!
