AutoItalia Magazine Issue 267 Back Issue

In the month that Ferrari launched its new 488 Pista at the Geneva Motor Show, we have a real mix of exotic cars and everyday machinery in this month’s issue. In the exotic camp are Clint Eastwood’s unique open-top Ferrari 365 Boxer, a 1950s Maserati with an air of mystery to it and Alfa Romeo’s stunningly aerodynamic 8C 2900 that won Le Mans. Affordable classics include two modern Abarths – Strada 130 TC and Abarth Punto – plus the ‘made in Italy’ Innocenti Mini Cooper and 1970s saloons from Alfa Romeo and Lancia. Add in a dash of classic Monte Carlo rally magic and classic car shows from Turin and Stoneleigh, and we think most of your Italian car needs are covered!
