AutoItalia Magazine Issue 268 Vorige editie

There’s more than a touch of the exotic about this month’s issue. Our cover bursts with the glorious sight of the Alfa Romeo SZ ‘coda tronca’, plus the equally rare V8-powered Intermeccanica Indra coupe. As for modern cars, we finally get behind the wheel of Ferrari’s 488 Pista, its most extreme ‘Special Series’ car ever, and we also test the £69,500 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio and Abarth’s new 124GT hardtop. Add in a Collectors’ Guide to the Ferrari F355, an interview with Lancia’s rallying hero, Miki Biasion, and plenty of action from shows and events across Europe, and the summer sun very much shines through on every page!
