Frenetic day today, with tons of dealerships stops (planned and not) and a museum.
The roads are still quite desert (well, full of oil burners and trucks of course, but no supercars yet). Today I only saw a Testarossa and a Gransport :bah:
But that's better like this, so I can focus on the indoor stuff I need to complete before Thursday.
First thing in the morning was the Pagani factory visit. Again, it felt like I was there before as I did the factory tour several times already in the past, in pics or vids
On display they had the yellow F with S wings and the british red F. No pics because outside I wasn't allowed and inside there was a pro at work, and anyway, i already had better pics of the two of them.
i then took the quick tour, checking out the room where the carbon fiber is moulded, the assembly room and the workshop. The pleasant surprise was to discover C12 UFO, the silver C12S owned by Metcalfe from evo magazine, there for servicing
of course no pics allowed.. too bad!
Anyway, it was great to see the factory working hard to fulfill clients' desires.
Anyway, it was time to move on, and with no time for a museum, i decided to work on some of the big dealerships you must see when in the area.
I started with Motor, a small Ferrari dealer not far from my hotel since it was on the road to Modena. A sea of 360 and 430, but a couple of pearls
Next was Autoluce, featuring this well known F50. I never thought I would see it myself!
From Autoluce to Autospeed, another well known name with some great machinery!
Time for a break, so I came back to the hotel to rest a bit. On my way there (BTW, a GPS is MANDATORY in the area, even if it gets lost every now and then because of the everchanging roads in Italy), I stumbled upon another dealer, BestAuto in Sassuolo, with some interesting cars aswell
The afternoon was devoted to one of the BIG names of the past, Stanguellini, who was building sportcars when the "Cavallino" brand wasn't even conceived. Small museum, great cars you rarely see on the road, passionate keeper. They still build engines and spare parts like they were doing 50 or 60 years ago when a client needs them. Sadly there are no young lads working there, only a bunch of big hearted guys well above their 60
I hope this won't mean a sudden stop to Stanguellini corse workshop.
You must visit if you plan a trip to Emilia Romagna!
And that's it for today
