I saw one of those secret prototype cars on Friday, a week ago. You know the ones, wrapped in vinyl with camouflage patterns. But it's a bit strange.
Because I didn't spot it on a remote road somewhere in the countryside. It was in Brussels, just near my office, in plain sight. And it's clearly an Alfa Romeo Giulia, a car whose shape is already known for a year now.
But that Giulia is indeed a prototype : it has this camouflage vinyl wrap, even if some bits seem to be missing, there are a couple of barcode stickers on the driver's door, a temporary italian plate at the back - I'm not even sure if that's legal outside Italy - and no Alfa badges anywhere.
And I've just found that this car has been featured on Autogespot back in May.

Interesting bit of trivia : the "L4" code on the temporary plate means the car is registered, not in Milan, where Alfa Romeo headquaters are located, but in Modena.
