the dealership in the Longmead Business Park, one of
them having driven more than 800 miles from Bathgate in Scotland
to be there.
Karen Finn, customer care and marketing
manager at Allams,
said: “The sun was shining for a fantastic record day and
we’d like to say a big thank you to all those involved in
making it so special, especially to the drivers, some of whom
came a long way to take part.
“The huge display of these beautiful and sporting
cars is the perfect way to celebrate the Alfa Romeo centenary
year.”
To meet official requirements,
the Largest
Alfa Romeo Parade needed to be continuously moving
from start to finish, have no more than two cars’ length between
each vehicle at any time, and have all drivers fully registered
beforehand.
Video cameras were positioned along
the route as well as at both the start and finish lines to
assist with the verification. The previous Guinness world record for the
Largest
Alfa Romeo Parade was 200.
