Meath...I am learning but my mechanical skills are very low, more than happy to try and keep it running/repairs but need to get a few things sorted that need a little more expertise and equipment than I have so thiinking of shipping it over to omicron for some TLC.

Im in Monaghan so not too far a way , The Lancia club of Ireland is having their 2day run (or part of it) in Meath this year so it may be worth your while to pop along .

Fulvia's in their standard form are perfect for 'spirited driving'! And Ireland (with Scotland, I presume), is amongst the best place to practice this driving style!
Do you really need a roll bar? The car is surprisingly strong. A few years ago I went on it's side (not on the roof, though). I switched off the engine, climbed out through the window and, with help from a surprised bypasser, pushed the car back on it's wheels. Not much damage, apart from the mirror and the front wind screen that had popped out. But I was a long way from home, and it rained, so I did not much enjoy the cold, wet ride home! In fact, I bought a pair of sunglasses at the nearest petrol station to protect myself a bit!
My car has a tough life, but is still going strong after 440.000km. And the next track day will be this Sunday.
