Post subject:  Re: Brussels Bugatti Expo

yesterday afternoon was the press presentation, but i had a slight problem getting there because of the heavy snow

Well, I managed to get there, sliding off the highway only once...

I had more problems returning (as far as time needed goes, I did not slide off the highway more), it was a record day in Belgium for the longest total traffic jams!

There really is an impressive line-up of cars there, worth the visit.

I just love the "euhm rebodies" ! :D :D :D

Post subject:  Re: Brussels Bugatti Expo

well, yes
let's face it, even though they are rebody's, i'm still glad they are there
if they hadn't used those cars, that could have meand less cars in total
i hadn't seen some of them myself before, most people won't even know it
but i still liked the diversity of cars present & a very good selection overall.

one lesser point, the Galibier's front right tyre was standing flat & that on the 2nd openingsday of the expo, that's not really right
also you could already see the dust lying on the cars, so i'm guessing they are not beeing cleaned


i remember several years ago they did a Bizzarini expo, also great show, but same thing
couple of rebodies & dusty cars
