Product Description

Product Description
This is a collection of informatively captioned photographs detailing the birth and development of Alfa Romeo saloon cars. Noted for their sporting handling and strong performance, employing the same suspension and running gear as GTs and sports cars, Alfa Romeo saloons have always proved popular. Indeed, back in the 1950s and 1960s, they were perceived as the benchmark sports saloons and set the pace long before the arrival of such other sporting models as those from the BMW 3-series. Alfa saloons were regarded by their owners as being as equally charismatic as their higher profile siblings and therefore earned the marque widespread recognition beyond the world of motorsport. This book follows the story of Alfa Romeo from the early days of production in 1910, through a multitude of racing successes, to the company's emergence as a builder of world-class sports and touring machines in the 1950s. John Tipler explores the development of the four-door saloon cars during the 1950s and 60s, from the 1900 Giulietta, Giulia TI and Super Berlinas to the Alfetta and Alfasud saloons of the 1970s and the 33 and 75 models of the 1980s. The author also describes the new generation of cars which emerged in the 1990s, including the striking 156 that instantly gained the coveted Car of the Year Award.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction to Alfas but all photos in b&w, 26 Jan 2000
By A Customer
Not a bad book, it gives the reader an interesting overview of all the Alfas over the years. However, all the photos are in black and white which is a real shame as there are some lovely photos in this book. If this book was reprinted with colour photos, then I couldnt recommend it more.
