Homologation Specials: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce ‘Alleggerita’
Well!! Memories!!!
I was lucky enough to buy a well-used example from Dan Margulies in West London in 1965 or thereabouts. He had no idea it was an Alleggerita and I didn’t either until I sold it 2 years later. A fabulous car to drive but I was too inexperienced to make the most if it.
Happy memories ‘though.
Fantastic video! It contains all the elements that made me love Petrolicous and take the step to become a founding member, great engine sound, great footage and in perfect surroundings.
And Alain de Cadenet is such a pro, I remember him as a presenter in the Victory of Design series, very enthusiastic and cool. Keep up the good work!
