Italian sporting car manufacturer, Alfa Romeo, will be displaying and running an impressive array of Alfa Romeo cars from its world renowned museum collection at Arese, Milan, during this weekend’s Goodwood Festival of Speed in Sussex (7-9 July).
And alongside these seven historic vehicles, two new Alfa Romeos will be making their UK public debuts at Goodwood. The new Alfa Spider will be starring on the Alfa Romeo stand, following its international public debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, where it was named Cabrio of the Year 2006 by a panel of international motoring writers. This all-new Spider has an important place in Alfa Romeo’s enviable heritage, which began with the Giulietta Spider in the 1950s, and includes the Duetto which this year celebrates its 40th anniversary. The all-new Alfa Spider will become available in the UK at the beginning of 2007.
Also making its UK debut at Goodwood is the Alfa Romeo 8C Spider concept, designed by Alfa Romeo Centro Stile. It was first shown at last year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California, where Alfa Romeo was the featured marque, and more recently the car won this year’s Villa d’Este Concours d’Elegance Design Award for concept cars. The 8C Spider can be seen in action on the Goodwood Hillclimb course at the weekend.
