Geneva press day

By: Dave Leggett - 1 March 2010 19:13

I have been looking at my schedule for the first press day at the Geneva Show tomorrow (March 2). There are a number of formal interviews that have been arranged in advance. I'm seeing Didier Leroy of Toyota at 10:15am, Bob Lutz on the Chevrolet stand at 11:00am and Nick Reilly CEO of Opel/Vauxhall at 2:00pm. At 4:00pm there's Allan Rushforth at Hyundai. In between, there's a list of people who said 'let's meet up in Geneva', a few more stands to call in on and, lest we forget, some new automotive metal to have a good gander at.

It certainly won't be dull.
