AutoItalia Magazine Issue 354 Retour à l'édition précédente

Mouthwatering 1960s classics regale our cover this month, courtesy of one man’s visionary eye. His collection ranges from Abarth 1000 TC, 750 GT Zagato and 1000 OTS Coupe to Alfa Giulia SS, GTA 1300 Junior, and Lancia Appia Zagato GTE and Fulvia HF. We celebrate the 50th birthday of Lancia’s Beta Montecarlo (including Jeremy Clarkson’s very own car) and feature a beautiful Lancia Rally 037 tribute. We have the exclusive story of how Zagato may actually have designed the Alfa Romeo Brera, too. Fiat fans will rejoice in our feature on Bertone’s very own Topolino barchetta racer, and the first road test of the new Grande Panda with a petrol engine (spoiler alert – it’s great). A super-rare Ferrari 735 S is fully featured, and we have stories on Fiat 500s invading London, Ferrari F50s convoying in Italy and full coverage of our very own mega-event at Brooklands. Unmissable reading all round!
