ALFA ROMEO 6C-2300 TURISMO/GT/PESCARA

Saloon, 7-seater saloon, 2-door sports saloon, numerous customs.

Synchromesh, free wheel, ball change and rather American styling (except on the rare short Pescaras) sound a bit Buick, but there's a splendid seven-bearing twin-cam engine and (still) centre-lock wire wheels. Turismos (68bhp) rather dull, but the 95bhp Pescara with 114ins wheelbase performs quite well.
