1935 Alfa Romeo 6C 2300 Pescara Spyder that competed in the Mille Miglia and was once owned by Benito Mussolini will be auctioned by H&H at The Centaur, Cheltenham Racecourse on February 27, 2008. Of huge historical importance, the stunning dark red Two-Seater carries an estimate of £600,000-800,000. Chassis 700635 clothed in striking coachwork by Carozzeria Touring was built to the special order of Benito Mussolini. Before delivery he had it modified with a dickey seat and the engine was specially tuned to deliver 95bhp rather than the 68bhp of the standard model.

in the first video, one can see 2 proud owners of the Peel P50, out of which only 94 were built on the Isle of Man and the 1965 Peel Trident. As for speed it was arounf 40miles an hour but depended alot on what you had for breakfast! NO PARKING PROBLEMS AT ALL, just pull your car wherever you are going... in the following one Jeremy Clarkson goes to work in the Peel P50 microcar from 1963 and if as one expects, it is not love at first sight, it is funny how he is more then attached to this cheeky little thing. They are very rare to find cars and each on of them, if in good conditon carry a price tag of 40,000 STG, even if when you costed less then 200 english pounds and since they did more then 100 miles to the gallon, ir was cheaper to drive one of these then walk... All yours, enjoy If you want some more information this is the official site http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andy.carter
