AutoItalia Magazine

It’s not often that Auto Italia can claim a world exclusive, but we’ve got one this month: a triple test of Alfa Romeo boxer-engined classics: Alfasud Sprint, Arna and 33. It’s a bit of a bumper month for Alfa Romeo, in fact. Guy Swarbrick has driven the new Alfa Junior Ibrida; David Rodríguez Sánchez brings an exclusive story on four little-known proposals for Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale concepts; Julian Rendell gives us running report on his 1965 Giulia Ti; and Stacey Dennis tells the inside story of her racing Giulietta in the Alfa Romeo Championship. We’ve been to the track with the new 730hp Maserati MCXtrema, and with the news that Ferrari’s new F80 boasts an engine with 300hp per litre, we look back at seven decades of landmark engines from Maranello. And there’s more: a profile of Fiat people carriers from the 1956 Multipla on; Team Cars reports on our Alfa SZ, Alfa Stelvio, Abarth 595 and Fiat Panda; and all the latest news and show reports.
