    That was exciting. I missed the delivery two days ago and waited around for them yesterday with great anticipation. No idea what it was. Turns out it was a traffic violation, which was slightly disappointing. I went 8 kilometers an hour faster than the speed limit and got caught by camera. Four months later and I get the citation for 57 euro. not sure how much it cost them to track me down through the rental car company and ship the citation, but they can't possibly have made much in this transaction.

      I'd have been hoping it was a Fazioli - preferably one like Angela Hewitt's. Oh well. Disappointment is the frame around the joys of life.

        Italians get speeding tickets?

        Wow, things sure have changed.

        I was only joking

          I actually had that happen too and the ticket was from Germany. If I recall I had Klaus translate the nasty letter they sent

          If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

            No, Americans in Italy get speeding tickets.

              It could have been either. A coin flip.

                They sent two versions, one in Italian and one in English.

                  That's very thorough for the Italians.

                    Genuine artisanal Italian traffic violation, suitable for framing. Each has a unique serial number and personalized message.
