1960 ALFA ROMEO GIULIETTA SZ
The ex-Gianni Bulgari, 1961, 1962 Targa Florio, Mario Castagnini 1963 Targa Florio
"The factory price was 2,700,000 lire, to which you had to add another 400,000 lire to improve performance and fine tune [the] suspension.
“The SZ was a simple and easy car to run which made it very popular around races in Italy in ’61/’62. There was hardly any race at that time that did not feature a half-dozen of them, making the 1300cc GT class extremely competitive.” – Gianni Bulgari reminisces in 2023 about his Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ

2005 MASERATI MC12
One owner and 7,500km from new
“It was not long after I took delivery of the MC12. I drove it to Monaco for the Grand Prix. The local police were restricting cars driving round the circuit, but one waved me on – with some enthusiasm – into the tunnel under what used to be the Loews Monte-Carlo. Unfortunately, on my exit at 160km/h I was met by another policeman bearing a radar gun... I was marched off to the police station, declared a ‘criminel de la route’ (criminal of the road) and given a fine... of €22.00.” - The owner of this MC12 describes an early experience behind the wheel of his much-loved Maserati in the March 2007 Italian edition of Evo
