HIGHLIGHTS

Powered by a 2.0-litre DOHC Twin-Spark engine
German import that’s reportedly been judiciously maintained throughout its life
Very smart paint and bodywork

THE APPEAL

Built upon Alfa Romeo’s 155 platform, the front-wheel drive GTV Spider combined distinctive Pininfarina styling with their characterful four and six cylinder engines. The new Spider boasted impressive handling and typically Alfa quirkiness everywhere you look, so it’s no wonder the end result was such a big hit among critics and clientele alike.

Here we have a smart 2.0-litre Twin-Spark Spider which was originally supplied to Germany and is now back in its country of origin. With particularly smart paint and bodywork and a fully functional soft top roof, this Alfa Romeo is a very presentable example and the vendor informs us it has been judiciously maintained throughout its life.

THE HISTORY AND PAPERWORK

Originally supplied to Germany
Retains a collection of German paperwork
Previous TÜV certificates
Now imported to Italy, with all paperwork apparently present
Original brochure included
We’re informed that the timing belt was last changed in 2020 which was approximately 3,000 kilometres ago
The vendor reports that a comprehensive service was recently performed

THE INTERIOR

Two-seater roadster configuration
The upholstery has worn in places but we couldn’t see any damage
Aftermarket Kenwood stereo fitted
With central gauges angled towards the driver for fuel, temperature and a clock, the instrument layout harks back to 105 Series Spider
We couldn’t see any cracking or other damage to the dashboard
The carpets and overmats exhibit some wear, but remain in usable condition
The door trims remain in good order, as does the rear parcel shelf

THE EXTERIOR

Distinctive Pininfarina styling
Bright and very shine red paintwork
The bodywork appears really straight
Underneath, the floor pans appear very sound and we couldn’t see any obvious signs of corrosion
The black soft top roof looks to be in good order and we’re informed it functions well
A hard cover for the roof ensures the sleek lines are retained
Besides some very slight pitting, the teledial wheels remain in very nice condition
All the light lenses and glass present well

THE MECHANICS

2.0-litre DOHC Twin Spark engine drives the front wheels
Manual gearbox
The vendor informs us that this Alfa Romeo drives immensely well with no faults to report
We’re informed it still has a valid German TÜV
The vendor reports that a comprehensive service was recently performed and the timing belt was last changed in 2020 (approximately 3,000 kilometres ago)
