Name:
Lino De Iulio
What was your first motor vehicle?:
1970 Fiat 124 Sports Coupe BC
When did you buy your first Italian motor vehicle and what was it?:
I Bought my Fiat In 1979 at the age of 19!
Do you still own this car?:
REGRETTABLY NO. My father convinced me at the age of 22 to part with the car as i was contributing all of my precious earnings and savings in to it. After all It was a Fiat!!
What type of Italian Car(s) do you own now?:
Funnily enough i own the same car now as what i used to own. The passion i have for this lovely looking early 70’s classic vehicle would not go away. I was very fortunate to learn just six years ago that the car was for sale and with much desire to acquire one; I did not hesitate to buy it.
What in particular attracted you to this motor vehicle?:
My nostalgia for the car was first and foremost, the immaculate look of the car as I inspected it coupled with its very original look and feel.
Most memorable moment:
Driving in convoy to Autoitalia on the Hume highway and as we drove on the stretch to Lake George the second barrel of the Webbers opened up and for a moment the car felt like it was leaving the road the same way a plane leaves a runway. It was incredibly smooth and very fast!
If you could have one Italian Made car, which would you choose and why:
I had a recent test drive of the drop dead gorgeous Maserati Spyder Cambiocorsa. This has gotta be the one. Its literally drop dead gorgeous.
