Let me introduce myself.
My name is Almar John Gouweloos.
I’m the son of a pedagogical teacher and was born on the 27th of August 1965
in Elst, Holland
My hobbies are:
-
Driving with my beautiful Aurelia
B24
spider
-
Driving with antique carriages and horses
-
Composing music and writing lyrics
When I was three years old I moved to Dordrecht in Holland. At that age I was already
interested in things that move with an engine. At the age of 8 I bought my first
moped, and first I wanted to know how it worked. I did some research and worked
on the moped, but the result was that it never worked after that. After a few years
things were going better and better and I made the mopeds faster before I sold them.
In those days I drove an MV Augusta 3-wheel car (similar to the one on this picture).
At the age of 12, I became more interested in the girls, so I began a new career
as DJ with our drive-in show named Disco Dynamite. Instead of putting mopeds in
the back of my 3-wheel car, I transformed my car into the perfect transport for
our disco show. We played at school, sportclubs and private parties. At the age
of 15, I got a contract to be DJ at the local disco. My specialty was mixing the
songs smooth into eachother.
I also bought my first car at that age, an Alfa Romeo GTV 2.0. It was a fabulous
car. I can still remember the low chairs and the revolution counter right in front.
A new passion was born: Alfa Romeo.
At weekdays I was busy with repairing the Alfa Romeos, while in the weekends I still
worked as a DJ. And at the age of 21, I had to choose which job I wanted to do for
a living. I preferred the Alfa Romeo, and a new company, named Milano, was born.
In the first years we sold 200 to 300 cars a year. In the beginning of the nineties
the leasing of Alfa Romeos was getting very popular in the Netherlands. After two
of three years the lease companies sold all their cars to dealers like Milano. Milano
only bought Alfas and Lancias, because we are the specialist of these cars in Holland.
We sell between 1100 and 1500 cars a year. You can get more info about this on our
website, www.milano.nl.

I’m very interested in classic Italian cars, the Aurelia Spider b24 America
is my favorite. Together with my wife Monique, you can often find me in Italy driving
my beautiful Aurelia Spider. We have lots of fun with this car. It’s not only
one of the most beautiful cars in the world, it's exclusive, not more then 240 cars
are build. It is also very practical (lots of loading space) and reliable. It's
a real eyecatcher at a Concours D'elegance and the driving qualities are fabulous.
It's also possible to get entrance to the Mille Miglia. These are the things that
made me decide to start a new website about this fabulous car, named the Aurelia
Spider.
We want to buy Aurelia Spiders B24 America (1955) all over the world. When you have
an Aurelia Spider and thinking of selling it, please call or mail us anytime. We're
interest in cars that are in concours condition or restoration projects. When we
have an Aurelia Spider for sale, you can find it on this website (click here).
With kinds regards,
