Auto Italia Canberra 2010 will be held on Sunday, 18 April 2010 on the Patrick White Lawns near the National Library of Australia between 10.00 am and 2.00 pm.

Alfa Romeo will be the featured marque for Auto Italia Canberra 2010 to commemorate the centenary of ALFA.

More information is available at Auto Italia Canberra

This is not a ‘show and shine’, or a concourse event it is simply a chance to display your car and share the passion you have for Italian motoring with other drivers. Food and drink will be available and this is a great opportunity to raise awareness of the simplicity and beauty of Italian motoring design through the past Century.

Hello,

Good idea going down in convoy though!

we should arrive in canberra with plenty of times to register our cars for the show which is why we are leaving so early...

we have a good mix of the new alfas but would be great to get some classics along on our convoy, you guys are more than welcome to meet us at the rendevous and follow us down...

 

[marxalfa]

if anyone has a decent video camera, i have a car mount for it that can suction cup on to any glass, exterior panel or non porous hard surface...would make for some great footage

 

[marxalfa]

its this sunday, anyone tagging along, hopefully the weather is great...

 

[blacknight]

[marxalfa]

Hey I know this is wrong place but its Aussie and I'm new to forums and can't work out where to post questions. Female Alfa TS 2002 Spider owner who knows a tiny bit about cars but new to Alfa. I have no history on car. Vehicle appears low. Whether its been lowered or simply springs sag, what is standard vehicle clearance? Have read that camber cannot be adjusted. Living in Country Vic Aust, no-one here has any experience with vehicle. Car is for road driving and running standard wheels 205/50 on 16" alloy rims. Experiencing wear on inside track of front wheels, rear wheels also camber in at top but less wear. Wheel align guys checked bushes and tie rod arms all OK. Firstly what is the recommended camber front and rear for standard road use? Secondly local PEDDERS recommended fit clevis bolt to replace the top bolt where the stub axle fits to the mcpherson strut assembly on front. This would allow camber to be adjusted, a little. I have also seen a post where a non-alfa part (arm?)can be fitted to allow camber adjustment to be done. Is this readily available (in Australia).

 

[marxalfa]

there is a better website for modern alfa's @ ausalfa.com they should be able to help you out...

 

[02SPIDER]

Thanx

Will go there, have also posted question on AROCA to see if that will help. Nothing in workshop manual, of course...

 

[ALFETTAMAD]

[Super1600]

Great to see the photos, a little far from Tassie to get to regrettably but hopefully one day I might get the opportunity to attend with one of my cars. Looks like it was an excellent day.

Am sizing up that flat 12 from the 312BB for my Sud Sprint. I think It'll just squeeze in
