Description
High-powered action dominates this month’s issue. Two big V8 stories include the new Maserati Levante GTS and Trofeo, plus a pairing of pre-war and modern Alfa 8Cs. Another Alfa twin test sees two Quadrifoglio models – Giulia QV and Stelvio QV – go up against each other. Which is the one we’d take home? Next up: a whole bunch of Ferrari V12s, starting with a first dynamic review of the roofless Ferrari Monza SP2, and moving on to John Collins’ amazing collection of Prancing Horses, from F12tdf to one-off SP3JC. It’s 10 years since Abarth launched the 500 in the UK, so we’ve got five of the best together to celebrate. Plus we have stories on the 25th anniversary of Alfa Romeo’s victory in the 1994 BTCC with the 155, never-before-told tales from The Italian Job movie, a super-rare Innocenti sports car and full reports from all the best Italian car events.
