"This year's Goodwood Festival of Speed (2-4 July) in the UK is dedicated to Alfa Romeo as the renowned Italian marque turns 100 years old.

To celebrate the event, Alfa Romeo has announced that it will display an array of vehicles representing various periods from the firm's first 100 years. Included among these will be many cars never before seen in Britain, direct from the brand's extensive Milan-based Museo Storico collection.

The Italian automaker said that it expects more than 50 important Alfa Romeos will attend the Goodwood Festival, ranging from examples of the pre-War P3, Monza, 12C-37 and 2900 B Le Mans, through to the 159 'Alfetta', GTAm, Tipo 33, 185T, 164 Pro Car, and the unique V10-powered SE 048SP Group C prototype as well as some special concept models.

Alfa Romeo will also use the festival to perform the UK debut of its latest product, the brand new Alfa Giulietta, which goes on sale in the UK this summer.

On their behalf, the organizers of the Goodwood Festival of Speed will celebrate Alfa Romeo's centenary with the construction of a special automotive 'sculpture' in front of the Goodwood House."

I've always wanted to go to Goodwood - now I want to go this year more than ever...

Here's a really odd interview with Lord March about the Alfa centenary at Goodwood:



I hate those 'subtitles'.  Lord March seems like a nice chap though.
