Hidden Treasures in Modena, Italy
Apart from the quantity of this collection, which is huge, there are some very rare cars like the Alfa Tazio Nuvolari’s 8C 2300 or the first car built by Enzo Ferrari after departed from Alfa Romeo. Current owner of the collection is Mario Righi residing in a centuries-old castle among vineyards outside of Modena, Italy. This collection has started to grow before the World War II.
