AutoItalia Magazine Issue 307 Retour à l'édition précédente

Gran Turismo Alleggerita – now there’s a phrase to get any Alfista salivating. Shortened to GTA, it represents the pinnacle of Alfa Romeo’s road car programme. Now it’s back with the new Giulia GTA and GTAm – and to celebrate we have fully 22 pages of GTA coverage this month, including road and track tests of the GTAm, plus the 1960s GTA Junior 1300, modern 147 GTA and 156 GTA and some little-known lost GTA prototypes. Ferrari fans can find out all about the sensational all-new 296 GTB – the very first Ferrari-badged V6 road car – as well as how the new Portofino M performs on UK roads. A pair of cute Fiat 850 derivatives – Spider and Amigo Camper – add to the fun factor, while we have the exclusive story on an amazing restoration of the “world’s rustiest Iso Grifo”. The summer events season is in full swing, too, as we report with glee from both Italy and the UK.
