Automobiliac visits the Alfa Romeo Museo Storico in Arese, Italy - HUGE GALLERY!

In an effort to bring all of you new content, I found myself at the Avis counter in Milan's Malpensa airport asking for an Alfa MiTo. Sadly they were out of them, but I got a new FIAT 500 instead.  It was far better than expected, with a surprisingly high standard of material fit and finish inside and out. The engine was a tad wimpy, but the handling was fun and the turning radius nothing short of miraculous.

I drove about 30 minutes on the A8 Autostrada to get to the Alfa museum in Arese, which is sort of like the same distance from Milan as Dearborn is from Detroit. Driving in Italian traffic was a lot more fun than I anticipated, and I soon found myself zooming through roundabouts with gusto. 

Please click on the image below to access my gallery of the visit, which contains about 130 photos.  The light was a little low, so a few of them are a tad blurry. Make sure you don't miss page 2 as well!
