Alfa Romeo’s recent resurgence has been marked by a diverse lineup of models, including the Junior subcompact crossover, the Tonale compact SUV, the refreshed Giulia sedan and Stelvio CUV, and the flagship 33 Stradale.

To solidify its position in the competitive market, Alfa Romeo must prioritize expanding its CUV offerings, particularly in the US, where this segment dominates sales.

Since then, with a 140% gain in the past 12 months, Rolls-Royce shares have gone on to soar through £5. So at 529p at the time of writing, will they reach £6, and when?

The 1980 Pontiac Trans Am, despite its unconventional hood design, was a remarkable car. Following a record-breaking sales performance in 1979, the Trans Am faced challenges due to rising fuel costs.

This innovative solution allowed Pontiac to avoid a complete redesign of the car’s front end. 1980 Pontiac Trans Am Turbo Survivor with Asymmetric…
