11.12.2002  MORE IMAGES OF THE STARS OF THE 27TH BOLOGNA MOTOR SHOW


The Bologna Motor Show has been significant to the Italian auto industry for the new models and concepts on display. Leading the way has been the Fiat Simba mini-off road prototype which gives pointer's to next years Panda/Seicento replacement, codename "New Small", and the Fiat Doblo Sandstorm 4x4 off road racer, which is painted in an eye-catching 'snake' colour scheme. Both as situated on stands designed to convey a rough off-road feel and convey Fiat's new found enthusiasm for four wheel drive. 

The rear of the freshly cosmetically facelifted Barchetta has been seen for the first time, and although the new large front grille and revised headlamps have generally been welcomed, first reactions to the rear bumper have been of a somewhat awkward and clumsy restyling. 

The Alfa Romeo Brera, which will form the basis of a limited run sportscar, the new 250 bhp Alfa 147GTA hot hatch, the 3.5-litre SuperTouring 156-based GTAm and the show stopping Ferrari Enzo, located on its angled stand first used in Paris, make up this look at the static display at Bologna.
