Default Alfa Magazine

Hello all,

Does anyone know whether Alfa produce a regular magazine dedicated to
their cars?

We have had a BMW (great car), AUDI (Great car too) and SAAB (ahem ...
next ...) and they all have regular magazines that have the a mix of
information about their cars and lifestyle stuff.

So does anyone know whether ALFA produce something like that?

Thanks in advance.

Yes. It does exists but it's in Italian, not sure if an english version
exists.
Its name is "Quadrifoglio"

Ciao,

I guess Alfa don't need to produce a magazine to make people feel good
about buying their cars.

Auto Italia is usually a good read. Usually lots about Alfas. Most
independent newsagents and some larger WH Smiths should have it.

I subscribe here in the USA, and I like the magazine (even though at
$130/year it's damned expensive), but I do feel that it is somewhat on
the "light" side editorially. They'll go on and on about the history
behind some tasty bit of Eye-dee aluminium, and then never show a shot
of the engine or tell us how the car handles, brakes, feels, etc. I'd
just like to see a bit more substance for my money.

Thanks to everyone.

I will look out for Auto Italia ... here in Australia.

As I am of Italian background, I will also try to get my hands on
quadrifoglio as well.

Thanks again to everyone.
