As most of the club members will probably know my car is being featured in the latest issue of Auto Italia which is out tomorrow.

The 8 page article is based on 3 highly modified Italian cars. A Lancia Delta, an Alfa 147 and my 20VT LE!

Just thought this should be posted in this section as well to make non members aware.

Yes, we don't want the lower orders missing out

Nice one Mark. Any chance of it being scanned - and what spec was the Delta?

I'm quite sure the club won't want it scanning and uploading after making a good relationship with Auto Italia.

The Delta was claiming around 390bhp with forged pistons with a GT30 turbo.

Got my subscribers copy today! Well done Eldinho - good write up on the Coupe & fastest straighliner too. I know modifying an LE is a bit sacrosanct, but they are top dollar internal mods you have & still looks pretty standard on the outside. I like your suspension mods - I did more or less the same with mine!

Don't we still have a gentleman's agreement that we won't post scanned articles from AI mag? Being as it's the only Italian car mag on the market that still promotes the Coupe (mensh in the article for the club!) - and the editor posts on here as well!

Looking forward to next weeks' buyrers guide on the Alfa Brera.

Thanks mona, the only other exterior mod I would consider is different wheels to allow bigger calipers. In an ideal world I would like larger 20VT style wheels.

Oh excellent Mark.

I will actually buy a magazine now... For the first time in many many years.

Nicely done.

Definately worth a read Nick.

i got my local whsmiths to stock auto italia,and its selling quite well,ill be picking my copy up tomorrow

It can also be ordered directly from the Auto Italia website.

Nice one dude. I think I'll purchase a copy at lunchtime and have a butchers

I'm saying nothing

Impressive stuff .. but they're right about them LED lights

I'm sure there would be mix opinions on that but can understand why some people wouldn't be fans. I like both the leds and the standards. LED's are much clearer at night though!

Which month is this anyone? Birds out buying it now and want to make sure it's the right issue

issue 164. My car is on the cover at the bottom right!

Cheers mate!

Just bought my copy. Bedtime reading for me

It's a bit thin for £4.20 but I'll make an exception just this once.

You must like my car more than me for it to be bedtime reading

I like it a lot.

In fact I'd buy it if was for sale in the next few months

If I was to sell the car, now would probably be the best time to sell as I seem to have quite a few interested people. But I've come to my senses a bit recently!

Works out a little cheaper if you subscribe

CMB Cams?

C&B

yes I know, I mentioned that in the thread in the members section! they got another couple of things wrong but nothing too major!

Got my issue in the post this morning too - nice article and v nice car Eldinho Good to see subtle mentions for Flea and FCCUK too!

got my copy today .nice feature and I also know the Alfa 147 well too.

subtle mentions? I think I made it pretty obvious to the writer I wanted both to get a mention!

I liked the bit when they were rude about Doc Frag's blingtastic rocker cover

I spent ages making that as shiny as possible as well.

yeah blo*dy rude about me old beast!!

I've not managed to track down a copy yet!! not been in any of the local WHSmith ..good work Mark

Joe

It can be ordered straight from the site Joe to make it easier!

Got my copy today. That evo looks lovely (and yours is nice too Mark )

Alfa Romeo Tipo 33

Yes the Evo was a great car in great condition!

Got it today! Nice article. IMHO they shouldn't be so sujective about the rearlights.. Ok on a silver car I think.
Nice plug for Flea too!
