Emilia-Romagna could put forward an excellent case to be the cultural heartland of Italy. Parmesan cheese, balsamic vinegar, bolognese and Luciano Pavarotti himself all hail from this affluent region in northern Italy.
But if, like me, you are a petrolhead, there can be no doubt that this is the place to be.
Italy is of course famous for its flamboyant supercars; and almost all of them come from within a few miles of one another.
