The Central & East Midlands Area Section of the Alfa Romeo Owners’ Club (UK) is for Alfa enthusiasts in and around Leicester, Nottingham and Derby. We also have members from Warwickshire and Lincolnshire. Please have a look through our site using the links on the left to see what we get up to and the Alfas we own.

There's NO CHARGE to join our Section, we just ask that you are a paid up member of the national Alfa Romeo Owners' Club   It's all about boosting the enjoyment of these FABULOUS cars!

bulletLatest News . . .

March's Alfisti newsletter is a tad late - should be back from the printers in the next few days. The lead promo is about RACE RETRO - get all the latest detail on the main club website.

Our annual Skittles contest against the Ferrari Owners Club at The Griffin Inn in Swithland was terrific fun as ever, with around 50 people in attendance. Despite our valiant efforts we were sadly pipped by two legs to one, so the famous Broken Piston Trophy returns to the Tifosi. (BOOOO!!)  It's now six games all in the titanic series, and we'll be ready to win it back next year!

The visit to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage museum, Browns Lane, Allesley, near Coventry was very enjoyable on Sunday 28 February. Everyone enjoyed the pub lunch to start with and the tour of over 140 exhibits in the afternoon.

We had a superb visit to Eibach Springs and Bilstein Shock Absorbers' UK HQs in Broughton Astley on 22 January.  See Looking Back for photos and mini story.
