And God created.....................and then man created the B24.......perfect harmony?

Probably gonna go straight to hell for this.... but... it would seem that Mr Farinas work had weathered the test of time more so than the big 'G' itself.  Have you seen Ms Bardot recently ??

In the race day programme at the Italian Grand Prix in 2013 where the Lotus team drivers were Kimi Raikkonen and Roman Grosjean, they were asked what we're their favourite best ever roadcars. Link's choice was a Lotus Evora (corporate speak + his wry sense of humour no doubt) whilst Roman Grosjeans choice was a Delta Integrale Evo 2. Presumably because he has one ?

Remember reading a long while ago of Chrissie Hynde coming out of a studio and asking a Fulvia owner if it was a 16 or 1300. Apparently she knew her stuff about them but whether she ever owned one I'm not sure. I'm still getting my head around Penelope Keith in a 1600HF...........that's almost like the Queen driving one.

sad thing was the car was only scrapped about 8 years ago , unfortunately it was done before anyone could have saved it

Long after Frank’s post regarding Mike Hawthorn’s ownership of Aurelias. I’m pretty sure that Mike Hawthorn was (perhaps also) the owner of Aprilias. Just found a link on that.
