Alfa Romeo’s sensational rear-wheel drive era is celebrated this month with a bumper 48-page supplement on ‘transaxle’ Alfas. We’re talking Alfetta, GT/GTV coupe, 75, Giulietta 116 and SZ/RZ – perhaps the best drivers’ cars Alfa has ever made. As well as driving the latest Ferrari – the open-top Portofino – we also turn the clock back to 1947 to solve the mystery of who designed the very first Ferrari 125 S. Oh, and we have a guide to buying a classic Ferrari 308. Add in some Zagato magic (OSCA 1600 GT and an interview with Ercole Spada), an amazing coachbuilt 1955 Alfa 1900 and a resto-mod Fiat 127 and this month is 148 pages of pure Italian car ecstasy.
