I wouldnt say its a good idea to go straight to manufacturer.
Manufacturers dont like to under cut their resellers because they then dont sell as much. Just ring around companies on the net for prices.

Most manufacturers will not sell to the public. Only trade only.
Also, if you find an action anywhere in the country il give ya £20 quid mate.
Noone has them and there is no date from the factory in Italy.

basically he means they Mille miglia dont have any in , so therefore people like myself and craig wont have any either , unless they are very lucky and its older stock. the factory where they make them has no date for them to be made and shipped to the UK
