Show Notes
Episode 91 of the Alfa Romeo Driver podcast – brought to you by the Alfa Romeo Owners Club is a little different to our usual format Editor Guy Swarbrick sat down with Club management team member and MiTo nerd David Faithful for a half hour chat about the new STLA Large platform that will underpin the replacements for the Giulia and Stelvio – and by the time we’d finished, we had over an hour of material. If you’ve already listened to Episode 90 then you’ll know that we’ve split it into two roughly half hour long episodes, which we’ve made available at the same time. If you’ve started here, you can listen to Episode 90 first, but they should make sense as a pair or separately – or, at least, they should make as much sense individually as they do together.. The first part was about the benefits of platform sharing – and the history of platform sharing at Alfa Romeo up to the Tonale – and here we’ll cover the upcoming Milano and the STLA large announcement.
