Just one of the several "extra" labels that italian car
builders love to put on their cars to make them look
"different" (climatizzata, lusso, sport...).Ciao,

Alfa Romeo's are junk. I owned one and it was the worst car
I ever owned. I would hate to use the word Campagnolo and
Alfa in the same sentence. They have nothing in common.Curt

that wheels from Campagnolo's automotive facility have been
fitted to cars from Alfa Romeo (as well as De Tomaso,
Lancia, Ferrari, and others.)James Thomson

albeit a lot less reliable than the Saabs I've owned since.
Hated to give it up, especially after I finally figured out
all the combinations of lights and fog lights possible with
the three toggle switches on the dash.The offer that was made was pretty hard to refuse, though.
And it was cash.Curtis L. Russell Odenton, MD (USA) Just someone on

They're not nearly as bad as Maseratis.
