In this issue

What’s the greatest car ever made in Italy? That’s the almost impossible question we’re answering in this month’s specially extended, 116-page issue of Auto Italia. Our cover displays our shortlist of the Greatest Italian Cars of All Time – but which one, out of Ferrari F40, Fiat Panda, Fiat 500, Lancia Delta HF integrale, Alfa Romeo Giulia and many more is our number one? There’s only one way to find out… New cars driven this month include the new Estrema versions of Alfa Romeo’s Giulia and Stelvio, plus the monster 530hp Maserati Grecale Trofeo. Abarth fans will love our stories on a record-breaking Abarth 1000GT Bialbero ‘Duck-Tail’ and Pininfarina’s one-off 2000 Scorpione concept – including how it nearly starred in Stanley Kubrick’s film, A Clockwork Orange. We celebrate 50 years of Enzo Ferrari’s purpose-built Fiorano test track and take a Fiat 124 Sport Spider to Silverstone. Add in reports on The Amelia concours and Rétromobile, and, as ever, you can read about the fullest possible spread of Italian cars.
