AutoItalia Magazine  |  Issue 301
Imagine a Ferrari so secret that not even the factory at Maranello knew about it. That’s the incredible story of Pininfarina’s Ferrari Testarossa-based F90, built for the Brunei royal family, that we’re able to tell exclusively this month. If the F90 represents one Ferrari extreme, accessible Ferraris are also represented this month, with a bumper guide to the V8s and V12s you should consider if you have a budget of £40,000 to £60,000. The Alfasud was famously Alfa Romeo’s first ever front-wheel drive car, but this month we have a story on an all-wheel drive one: the incredible twin-engined Alfasud Bimotore. Another sporty mid-1970s Italian is profiled, too, with the Fiat 131 Sport/Racing, while Fiat’s new 500X Sport gets a road test outing. Rare Italian metal this month includes the V8-powered Intermeccanica Italia and Cisitalias and more from jet-age designer, Giovanni Savonuzzi. And despite everything, we’ve been out and about at as many events as we could get to as well!
