‘BELLA COME ROMA’ IS THE LANCIA LAMBDA SPIDER CASARO – 1925

The architect Benedetto Camerana, president of the 4th edition of the Reb Concours, chose it from among 60 models exhibited at Villa Alberico in the Appia Antica Archaelogical Park, In his opinion, the worthly represents “the classic beauty of Rome” and, for almost a century, it has testified to the ingenuity and farsightedness of those Turin coacbuilders who made the purity of our design known all over the world. An then, as presidente of the MAUTO, the National Automobile Museum, Camerana gave the floor to another group of experts, the three women who direct the museums of Mille Miglia, Nicolis and fratelli Cozzi. The “ladies of engines” unanimously chose the 1937 Alfa Romeo 6C Berlinetta. Two awarded Rolls Royces: the monumental 1929 Phantom I that belonged to Winston Churchill conquered the pre-war category and the legendary 1937 Phantom III took center stage of the movie Goldfinger 007. The Phantom I was judged by the three-time Oscar winning set designer Francesca lo Schiavo; for Paolo Liguori, director of TGCOM 24, the Phantom III was certainly the “most TV setting”. For the 10th anniversary of Aci Storico, tha award went to the 1969 Lamborghini Miura S.
