Have seen some great stories and pics on other Forums and I know there has been reports with pics on Argentinian Club runs and some long journeys.
One of our new members,who has done countless miles in Fuegos ,has crossed Australia from East to West and back as well as South to North and return. Look forward to her posts.
Another Fuego driver recently did a quick trip from Sydney to Melbourne and return- that would be nice to see with photos.
I have driven from Rome to North of France and from Paris to Rome in Renault 14 and Fiat Mirafiori and would enjoy seeing some European and UK drives in Fuegos.
A couple of excellent drives in northern NSW in my opinion are firstly the 150k's or so from Grafton to Glen Innes, and return[another 150k's back]. I've never seen much traffic in the many times I've travelled it, and just some fabulous Grand Prix type sections. The other is from Nabiac, about 20k's south of Taree, to Gloucester, then on Thunderbolts Way to Walcha, and then on to Armidale. You could continue then through Ebor to Grafton. Some gorgeous country and great roads.
I travelled this road a few years ago, only went on to Tamworth, in tandem with a friend who was in a 2001 Holden Calais, with me in my original Fuego which was getting in the high 300 thousands with virtually no work done on it apart from servicing. My friend was staggered that no matter how hard he drove he could'nt shake this old red french 2litre, from his tail, and guess who wanted to go back and do it all again. Not my friend in his Calais! Changed his attitude completely about "funny" little french cars.
Ah memories! Next time I travel these roads again I'll take a camera, and post some pic's if I can work out how to do it.
If you haven't been on these roads, they are worth a look.

Welcome to the Forum and a great post. Pics would be nice so you have excuse for another drive . Photos of your Fuego would also be nice.

slowly the stories are beginning to be squeezed out of her on another forum hehehhe....and I imagine if she could find the photos, she might write a bit more
