Alfa Romeo 916 GTV and Spider - The Complete Story

Traces the complete story of the Alfa Romeo GTV and Spider models produced between 1994 - 2005, commonly known to enthusiasts by the manufacturer's project code as the 916 series.
The 916 models would always be controversial - they replaced the iconic Spider, the best-selling Alfa Romeo sports model of all time, and the brand-establishing Alfetta GTV. Sharing components and a platform with a humble Fiat hatchback, would the cars ever be considered 'real' Alfa Romeos? The cars were critically acclaimed, and, though they faced tough competition in the late 1990s from the likes of the Audi TT, they remained in production for over a decade.

This book covers the model variations in depth through all three facelifts.

Alfa Romeo 33 Berlina e Giardinetta

As the successor to the Alfasud, the Alfa Romeo 33 inherited its updated floorpan and mechanical components, offering both saloon and Giardinetta estate versions and becoming an iconic Alfa of the 1980s. Its design featured clean, square lines, resulting in a balanced and elegant appearance.

The first series (1983-1986) underwent an initial restyling leading into the 1990s, while the second series remained on sale until the mid-1990s. Additionally, numerous special editions, a marketing highlight for Alfa Romeo, further enriched the model's appeal.

Authored by Lorenzo Ardizio and Leonardo Olivari, experts in Alfa Romeo's history, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the 33's technical, stylistic, and industrial evolution, including special variants developed for law enforcement agencies.

Alfa Romeo 75 (Nuova Edizione)

NOWOŚĆ

Alfa 75 bywa uważana za ostatniego prawdziwego Alfa Romeo i ostatni masowo produkowany model z napędem na tylne koła. Wprowadzona w 1985 r. z okazji 75-lecia marki, wkrótce napotkała problemy gospodarcze i przeszła pod skrzydła Fiata.

Technicznie Alfa 75 stanowiła punkt kulminacyjny filozofii transaxle, zapoczątkowanej przez Alfettę. Choć skomplikowana i kosztowna, ta konstrukcja znacznie poprawiła doświadczenie jazdy. Następnie pojawił się legendarny silnik Twin Spark i pierwszy turbo-Alfa godny tej marki.

Nowe, rozszerzone wydanie książki - opublikowane ponad dziesięć lat po oryginale - ukazuje się z okazji 40-lecia Alfy 75. Zawiera zaktualizowane teksty i nowe zdjęcia, podkreślające osiągnięcia techniczne i kulturowe znaczenie tego modelu.

Alfa Romeo 8C - Competizione - Spider

The 8C Competizione was launched in 2008, a synthesis of the new "Alfa Romeo philosophy", the marque's strategy to reaffirm its uniqueness and ability to bring together emotion, engineering and aerodynamic efficiency and the exaltation of driving pleasure.
From the concept car to the version produced in just 500 examples, just a very few modifications were made by the Centro Stile at Arese; this supercar struck an immediate chord and relaunched the image of the marque among the world's most important collectors.
This success was to be repeated with the 8C Spider - also produced in a limited series - which the Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson defined as the world's most beautiful car.

The Supercars series could hardly not feature a title dedicated to these two bespoke Alfas. Ample space is dedicated to the history and stylistic evolution of the two models, including an examination of the original Frau interior trim specifications.
There are also chapters devoted to the technical history of the cars and the driving impressions of those who have tested them on track.
The particularly rich illustrations have largely been drawn from the archives of the magazine Quattroruote.

Alfa Romeo GTV e Spider

In the early Nineties, the Italian automotive scene was a Fiat monopoly following its acquisition in 1986 of Alfa Romeo, with the marque exhausted after a decade in which it survived in part thanks to state support.
These were years of profound change, with the management of the Styling Centre at Arese entrusted to Walter de Silva who, due to the lack of resources to invest, had to exploit and adapt the group synergies by utilising the Tipo II platform to design a new range of models.

The "Duetto", now reaching the end of a career that had lasted for more than a quarter of a century, had to be replaced, while also being flanked by a coupé, absent from the model range since the retirement of the Alfetta GT. The GTV and Spider models were therefore created in synergy with Pininfarina, two cars equipped with a range of four- and six-cylinder turbo and naturally aspirated engines.

Over the course of a decade, the two were subjected to updates and spawned various limited editions, along with interesting competition versions. Their success is reflected in the interest they now hold for collectors in Italy and elsewhere.

Alfa Romeo 156

The 1990s opened with Alfa Romeo's Centro Stile leaving the historic Portello site and moving to Arese. It was there that a small group of designers led by Walter de Silva was charged with tracing a new identity for the marque. In particular, they were asked to design the heir to the 155, a car that despite success in competition had never been a favourite with the Alfisti due to its over-reliance on synergy with the other cars from the Fiat Group.

A new design vision, with formal continuity with Alfa traditions and that idea of referencing the characteristic styling motifs of the production cars led to the birth of the 156, a model that was to make its mark on the market for years to come. Elected Car of the Year in 1998, it was to be very popular in Sportwagon estate car form too, this version being followed by the Crosswagon with Giugiaro restyling.
This monograph covers the full story of a beguiling car: from styling to technology and through to its industrial development, without overlooking the more offbeat aspects such as its multiple roles in films and television productions.
