Classic Cars: June issue on sale now!


Ferrari gets top billing in the June issue of Classic Cars magazine, with a celebration of 60 years of the cars from Maranello. We drive six of the best heartstoppers and hellraisers: 195 Inter, 250 GT SWB, 275 GTB/4, Daytona, 512 BB and F40 to uncover the Ferrari factor. And, highlight the Ferrari greats that you can afford.

Of course, it’s not all about Ferrari. Find out what it’s like to take part in the Coppa Milano-Sanremo with an Alfa Spider Duetto and an Italian pop star, the secrets of Jaguar’s XJ-S, Charles Morgan’s take on the future of traditional sports cars, an extreme Gemballa-bodied Porsche 928, what makes the Citroën SM so clever, and how to buy a Lotus Cortina before prices get silly.

Classic Cars is available in most good newsagents and supermarkets. If you can't find it on the shelves, call: 01733 555161
