Little is as pure Italian as a red Alfa Spider. It's not hard to imagine driving on a hot summer day in northern Italy behind the wheel of this gem. This is really a happy car, the humming twin-cam engine is strong and vocal. The dashboard is elegant and reminiscent of a time when ladies were ladies and men were men. At the time when Alfa launched the spider, they hit bulls eye. As a classic it survived almost as long as the Porsche 911. Both have distinctive silhouettes.
The Alfa is elegant and an amazing drive, yet it is uncomplicated to own. Most things can be repaired at a regular car workshop and parts are easily available in, for example, England. The value of the Alfa Spider has gone up recently. The predecessor, the so called Duetto, the prizes have steadily risen, and one expects the series two spiders to follow. In principle, this is the same car, besides some technical modifications and the Coda tronca. Coda tronca means "truncated tail" in Italian, and is a designation that has been used on past Italian cars to signify their abruptly ending rear bodywork – also known as Kamm tails. This makes the car aerodynamic but also elegant / distinctive appearance.
Our Alfa spider underwent a complete check book restoration in 2010 and looks just as nice today.

Often it becomes expensive to buy something that needs work. This spider is ready to go: Get into the car, turn the key, lower the roof and off you go. Summer is for enjoyment not restoration work.
