Hello to all friends of the
ABARTH-COPPA-MILLE and a Happy NEW YEAR 2008.
The
ABARTH-IG-Deutschland has had in this summer the
21th jubilee. We celebrated a great ABARTH-party with our members (56 ABARTH-teams in 2007) by the Oldtimer-Festival (15.-17. June 2007) in the paddock of the Nürburgring. On saturday evening there was a hot party with live-music, free-beer and a buffet for all teams. For more pictures look at
