Has anyone tried to open the Brooklin diaries.
It is showing the 9th. Sept but only the one pic.

Don't work at the moment

What I really want is the Archive so I can research older Brooklins launch date, discontinue date and last retail pricing.

The Brooklin catalog from 2016 shows all the older Brooklins with their years of production (beginning and ending). I don't think there was a catalog for 2017, or maybe I just missed it, and the 2018 one doesn't have that information.
As for original or last retail prices, I don't know where you'd find that information. Otherwise, Mr. Cappi's book on Brooklins may have a lot of information that could be helpful to you.

I don't think management of the web site is with Brooklin yet.
I'll have a word with Amanda. I've just tried it and there's just a picture of the Bel-Air convertible (in hard top form?)

Spoke with Amanda this morning. The web site is still managed by the Italian web masters so what you see at the moment is just a test run. Once everyone knows how to maintain the site, everything should be up and running as normal.
On a positive note, the new Brooklin catalogue will be available from tomorrow, well here in the UK anyway. The suggested price is, I understand, ?7.99. Talk nicely to your dealer.

These Italians are not webmasters at all and should be got rid of.
We have not been updated for weeks. No fault of the factory. They have to live with what they are presented with.
