Alfa Romeo Classic Marketing Photos

Post by Marlow Sud »

Hi Guys,

These photos were mixed in with the paperwork for the S1 I bought from Ireland a few years ago. I thought I should share them.

Shows the purity of the design I think.
First photo looks like Col's gem. White does look nice 8-)

Lovely period pictures. Have not seen the second one in colour before. The picture was part of the press pack set which I have a copy of, but all the photos in the PP are sadly B&W.

Here are another two launch photos of the S1 Ti which I have always liked:

That is a great fort in the background, wonder where that is ?

I agree they do look good in white. :)

Probably down the road from the Pomigliano D'Arco site in the bay of Naples. Certainly somewhere in Italy.

I love those old publicity photos 8-)

That would explain why the top of the fort looks like it has a later WW2 addition, as its an ideal spot for anti aircraft battery.

So if Naples is near then I presume. that's why it would be worth all that effort to build up there. Very interesting, thanks. :)

Is it me, or do these Suds look to be a bit low, - did they change the ride height at any time ? Whatever, - cracking pictures, particularly the white one.

You have a point there John, now you mention it. The arch gap does look smaller.
