AutoItalia Magazine Issue 294 Zurück Ausgabe

Did someone say Alfa Romeo is 110 years old this year? Well it’s time to celebrate with us as we nominate the best and most significant Alfas of all time. One of these has to be the new ‘Monster’ Giulia GTAm, whose back story we can tell direct from the horse’s mouth, thanks to an interview with the man who created the 540hp lightweight. We’ve also had the privilege of driving the last two Bugatti racing cars ever made, including the amazing EB110 Le Mans car. And we guarantee you’ll never have never seen a Ferrari collection like the one we have this month: almost 60 cars of huge historical significance. Small car lovers will appreciate our buyers’ guide of one of the best off-roaders in the world, the Fiat Panda 4x4/Cross, plus we have drag strip action in baby Abarths. We also report on an ultra-rare coachbuilt Lancia Aurelia B20 and Italian cars that managed to survive decades in production, against all odds.
