Fantastic roads, great scenery, delightful food and friendly people... All enriched by the feel, smells and sounds of the accompanying 1968 Alfa Romeo Giulia Coupé. Today I present 14 wonderful newly arrived classic and sports cars of British, Italian and American origin and a gorgeous vintage Velocette Motorcycle.
