Description
The most beautiful car ever made? Surely the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale is right up there – and if you thought you could never own one, our road test of the new UK-made R33 tribute might give you other ideas. Another classic Alfa this month is an 8C 2900 B Spider with Zagato-type bodywork, while we have a full report on National Alfa Day 2025. For no-nonsense fun, the Fiat Panda 100HP is hard to beat, and we have a five-strong group test this month, from standard to – yes – 300hp. More Fiat madness comes from a Kawasaki-powered 128 – surely the world’s fastest 128. We also have news from Ferrari about its forthcoming Elettrica and its latest one-off, the SC40. And we test the new Maserati MCPura; look at a very rare pre-war OM 665; and review the ugliest cars ever to wear Ferrari badges. Rest assured, there’s also a full spread of news, reviews, events and cars for sale, too.
