    World Record Attempt - Largest Alfa convoy in the World! 07.02.10

    On Sunday 7th Feb, Proalfa along with at least 300 other Alfa's at Allam's in Epsom the plan was to break the world record for the biggest Alfa convoy in the world! This was organised by Alfaowner.com and Allams of Epsom.

    The day started early with us meeting with the rest of the hertfordshire gang at South Mimms at 8.30am!

    Thankfully we had all heard the jokes about the' RAC having a field day', and the 'AA are going to be on standby' by this point, and we were ready to leave South Mimms

    A good turnout with a convoy of around 15 cars from South Mimms heading down towards Epsom. The journey round the M25 wasnt bad and traffic was light with the odd supercar making an appearance on the way... see videos..

    As we got into Epsom town center, Alfa fever had hit bigtime! Pedestrians on the street asking us what the occaision was, one even commenting 'she hasnt seen so many beautiful cars in her life!'

    We arrived at Allams in Epsom and all parked up - by now the Alfa's were swarming the place - and there was Alfaowner fleeces everywhere! We went in registered, made the most of the warmth and the bacon butties and teas inside - and a thankyou to Allams for their hospitality and free teas and coffees. Then it was off to mingle and have a nosy around at some of the cars that had turned up to break that record.

    Around 12.45 everyone made their way back to their cars and got their engines running - about 1.10pm the world record attempt began. The plan was to get as many cars over the start and finish line in a convoy without stopping.

    Well we and im sure everyone else is happy to say we did it!!!!!!

    As the cars went over the finish line and looped around a pre designated route around Epsom and returned to Allams there was smiles all round! everyone collected their certificates and bought their photos, more bacon butties and have to say was a great day out, on top of that we broke a world record!

    Alfaowner.com November Hertfordshire meet @ Proalfa

    In November Proalfa hosted the November Hertfordshire meet – the plan was dry weather, bbq, and a whole load of Alfa’s … well we managed two out of three.. we cant control the weather, but we had a good turn out,

    the food seemed to go down well –there wasn’t any left at the end of the evening.

    The weather and the run could only be described as... wet, though the atmosphere was buzzing,  and it was still a good route, and the pub that the route ended at was very pleasant and more importantly warm.

    To see pics of the event go to the Proalfa Gallery, or the gallery on Alfaowner.com
