If there’s one Alfa Romeo model you should pay special attention to at the ongoing Goodwood Festival of Speed 2013 (11-14 July), it’s the all-new 4C mid-engine sports coupe that’s making its dynamic UK debut at the motoring event.

As an added bonus, the 4C ‘Launch Edition’ doing the rounds at Goodwood is finished in a different metallic grey hue, which looks pretty nice if you ask us – yes, as hard as we tried, we’re remain hugely bugged (pun-intended) about those atrocious headlamps.

Aside from the 4C, Alfa has also brought along a full line-up of historic cars, including the 8C 2900B Speciale tipo “Le Mans” (1938), Gran Premio Tipo 159 “Alfetta” (1951), 2000 Sportiva (1954), 33 Stradale prototipo (1967), 1750 GT Am (1970) and 33 TT 12 (1975)

“We’re so excited to be showcasing Alfa Romeo’s future at Goodwood with the Alfa 4C, but it’s equally important to us that we give festival goers a taste of our history too,” said Damien Dally, Head of Brand at Alfa Romeo UK. “Alfa’s heritage is so valuable to the company – it’s part of our DNA. You only have to look at the 33 Stradale and the 4C to see that amazing lineage,’ said Damien Dally, Head of Brand at Alfa Romeo UK.
