Hello from Italy!

A forum for new members to introduce themselves to the rabble already onboard. Not compulsory!
Tell us a little about yourself, lie if you have to but keep it to just an introduction, not a car discussion.

Hello from Italy!

Post by dfabrici »

Hi everybody!
Davide here, I'm from Italy, 26, and I'm really passionate about cars, mechanics, electronics and so on. I love fault finding and problem solving.
I own a 2004 206 1.4 HDi, that I love, and I often drive a C1 1.0 from 2008 (that I love too... but a bit less :-D).
I joined this forum to chat about cars, to help others with my (albeit little) knowledge, to seek for help, and to find a place where to share our common passion.

Have a nice day!
Davide

Ps: please forgive me should I glitch with my not so good English at times. :-D

Well your English is far better than my Italian! Welcome to the forum Davide.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Hello Davide and :welc: to the forum.

I have to agree with Paul your English is far better than my second language, which is French unfortunately and not very good either!! However you have come to the right place to indulge your passion. Have a good look round the forum from the Board Index above. As well as tips and tricks and advice you will find all sorts of amusement in the Off Topic Chat Lounge where there is always something going on. Join in whatever interests you, they are a terrific bunch of people and participation is the best way to get the most from it. :)

Why not jump in straight away then Davide. :-D Try this thread "The A to Z" of Cars. Simply make a selection for any letter, post a picture up.

I have just done my "Q" and its this car here.

Thanks everybody for the warm welcome! I'm glad that I decided to join here! :-D
That italian two seater sports a really nice design, it reminds me of the Fiat Barchetta actually. I'll join that thread for sure!
At the moment I fell in love with the new 308, the one that will be sold starting september, I'd love to own that car!
