The 3MA is an international meeting of Fiat 131 owners and their cars. The first 3MA took place in Southwest Ireland from Friday 18th to Monday 21st of May 2007.

 

The event, which was kindly supported by Fiat Ireland, consisted of non-competitive driving with routes designed to take in some of the spectacular Atlantic coastline and mountain passes. But it was also a social event with plenty of time allocated for the exchange of stories and experiences about the 131 Mirafiori. As one of the attendees said: "There are no strangers at the 3MA, just 131 friends".


The meeting exceeded the expectations of all present so we decided to make it an annual event. Plans for 3MA-2008 are being finalised and we are already thinking about 3MA-2009!

 

 


 


Having totally enjoyed 3MA-2007 and discovered the myths and legends of Ireland with all its inspirational scenery while fully enjoying driving our 131s, we decided to turn to Scotland for 3MA-2008.


Friday 16th to Monday 19th of May are the dates for 3MA-2008 so reserve the dates in your diaries now. Plans for 3MA-2008 are progressing steadily and while we have not yet finalised our driving routes we expect to stretch from our chosen base in Inveraray, the Argyll region's former Royal Burgh in Western Scotland, to the mountainous Highlands discovering a land of lochs, mountains, history and much more.


We look forward to testing cars and drivers on roads like the Inverfarigaig Corkscrew, the aptly named road built in 1815, which twists up deep into the wild by the side of Loch Ness and is more difficult to drive than to say!

 

We’ll be able to drive the tightest and steepest set of hairpins you can imagine where most have to do three-point turns while we’ll probably just use power oversteer!


3MA-2008 will have the same theme as 3MA-2007 which is a lot of driving fun as well as plenty of time to socialise, meet up with old friends as well as make new ones.

 

We have chosen the Loch Fyne Hotel & Spa for our accommodation for 3MA 2008. We also expect to arrange ferry discounts for our Continental and Irish friends. Details can be found on the Travel and Accommodation section of the website.
