Fancy an affordable Alfa roadster... from Japan?

First Alfa teased us with the 8C but they only made five hundred and it was a bit on the expensive side. Then they showed us the 4C concept which they intend to put into production in 2013. It's mid-engined and rear-wheel drive, so possibly the nearest we'll see to the X1/9 experience, but Alfa only intend to make 2,500 a year and it's still a bit pricey.
But good news may be on the way. Fiat are teaming up with Mazda to develop a new roadster platform. It will underpin the next generation MX-5 and also a new Alfa roadster. Both cars will have their own individual engines and designs, but will share a common platform. Both the Mazda and Alfa variants will be built in Japan.
So, the first affordable, rear-wheel drive roadster from Fiat for many a year, but would you be prepared to drive an Alfa with Japanese DNA?

Well, this year's National Event has now taken place and it was certainly one to remember. With a turnout of 35 cars, including five from the Netherlands, we had one of the best attended events in years. The Dalesbridge Centre looked after us superbly and, for the most part, the weather smiled on us (although the first night was a bit wet and wild).
