Current issue - AutoItalia

Double page spread featuring the train driver advert in an article about Italian car advertising. Mag sums it up as possibly one of the best ad lines ever - 'succinct, cool, smart'.

Will have to check it out

That's in last month's issue (August, but came out early July), the current issue (September) arrived in my post box yesterday and will hit the newsagents next week, so better look out for the August issue now

September edition has a great article on The Italian Job as it's 50 years this year, we met a few classic Mini owners in Turin and chatted about there being an event later this year with the possibility of Michel Cain visiting as their VIP guest, that would be so cool as I love the film.

Also noticed back issue 278 has a Integrale v 20vt feature and 275 has a group test including the coupe. May grab myself some copies.

And isn't great to have walked some of the streets and Lingotto's rooftop where the movie was made. I also enjoyed seeing the nearby building where they drove on its roof (similar to the Sydney Opera House).

Great ad - a framed one is up on my study wall right next to me now !

Quite ironic really, I’m a train driver with a Fiat Coupe...mind you, I never grew up wanting to be a train driver!
