We have two notable birthday celebrations this month. First up, the Fiat 500 turns 60 years old – the exact date is 4th July 2017 – and we have a great line-up of classic baby Fiats to enjoy, as well as wise words from Fiat 500 superfan, Peter Stevens. The second anniversary is Ferrari’s 70th. We have not only a bumper retrospective of Maranello greats but also a pairing of two turbocharged icons: the Ferrari 288 GTO from 1984 and the current 488 GTB. They make a fascinating comparison – but which one would we drive off into the sunset? Find out in the latest issue…

Auto Italia magazine is dedicated to the owner, collector and admirer of Italian cars. From Fiat to Ferrari and Alfa Romeo to Zagato, all marques presented in this high quality publication are supported by specially commissioned original photography.

Each issue is brought to you by a team of writers and photographers who have a passion for all things Italian; the country, the lifestyle, the cars. Each one of them has a background of either Italian car ownership, motor racing or engineering.

The informative content covers new car launches, road and track tests of historic, classic and current range cars, competition cars, buyers guides and interviews with prominent personalities.

Auto Italia is a collectable, continuous history of the Italian automotive industry and is unique in publishing in-depth features on the specialist coachbuilders that created a seemingly endless catalogue of vehicles. Many of these cars are unknown to even the most dedicated Italian car enthusiast and are often presented with previously unpublished archive photography.

Whatever your particular interest is,
if you like Italian cars then you will love Auto Italia.
