Anyone know the story behind it? Diablo's aren't exactly cheap nowadays.

That Alfa Sz is fantastic, always loved those lines & design.
There used to be one fairly permanently parked just off Park Lane in London - for years. Not sure if it's still there.

Remember when they were £25-30k tops.
I remember how 'different' they were - and stunning.

I can't remember if they were actually half decent. Opinions on them as a 'Car' ?
Agreed, it was like a very dramatic design in its day.

Parked in St James’s Street this evening. Rather beautiful.

The owner wasn’t taking any chances. He’d put a Crooklock on it!

Somehow it looks like an "anatra sorridente".

I liked the SZ when it was launched (1989) and still like it now.

Not the adolescent idea of a supercar but then you check the numbers. That's a 200mph car lurking in Chievely Services.



With brakes bigger than the wheels and tyres on some cars.

Pretty much as fast as anything can go outside of a hypercar no?

Exactly. There were two 911s in the Services and I tried to do an arty shot of a white one with the blue one in the background. As I ambled about looking at them more closely the size of the Turbo's brakes intrigued me. The other one was a Carrera and while not a Porsche expert its comparatively small brakes suggested the Turbo was a bit special. And there it was just quietly sitting there not making a scene.

The arty shot was a dismal failure btw.

Doesn’t the first one have the P1 *** Number plate off the press cars?
