Hello peeps

I've been down to Castle Coombe today for a foto shoot with Kylie (my Fiat Spider).

Not the best start when the drivers side wiper arm came off at 70mph on a dark and VERY WET M4
I drove for over an hour without wipers :shock:
(all fixed now though)

Anyway the shoot is for April or May's issue

I thought i'd share a few of my photos with you.

Great photos.

I do love Fiat Spiders, always remember watching the factory rally cars on the RAC

Gorgeous stuff. Let us know when the article’s out. One of those shots has ‘front cover’ written all over it …

My old man had an Alpine, wrapped it and fractured his skull. Walked around with a cracked bonce for 25 years until they spotted it.

Is the correct term a 'Top Down' or a 'Down Top' shot? :lol:

Not exactly, i've still got the black leather in my lock up
The red is Vinyl, it was a spare interior my dad had it made for one of his spiders but he never actually finished it, so it's been in storage for 20 years
