2,000cc twin-cam engine; five
former keepers; showing just 5,075 miles (we can only presume that it is 105,075
or the speedometer had been changed at some point)
Offered here is a
timeless Italian classic, this 1975 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 presents an
exceptional opportunity to own one of the most iconic open-top sports cars of
its era. Finished in striking red with a beautifully contrasting black
leatherette interior, this elegant Spider captures the unmistakable spirit of
1970s motoring with its Pininfarina-designed lines, spirited performance, and
unmistakable road presence.
Powered by Alfa Romeo’s renowned 2,000cc
twin-cam engine, this Spider delivers the engaging driving experience for which
these cars have become so celebrated, combining lively performance with classic
Italian character. First registered in the UK on 1st April 2003 following its
importation, this example has clearly been cherished, having had just five
former keepers in total and remaining with its current owner since May
2021.
Having been in storage for a period of time, the car should be
viewed as a rewarding recommissioning opportunity. Upon being moved from
storage, the clutch appears to have become stuck, with gears currently unable to
be selected. However, importantly, the engine starts readily, runs well, reaches
temperature correctly, and maintains good oil pressure, all of which are
encouraging signs for its mechanical health. This presents a fantastic prospect
for an enthusiast or collector seeking a largely complete and charismatic Alfa
Romeo to return to the road.
In a 2005 auction listing, it was reportedly
the subject of extensive renovation work during 2000/2001, which included a bare
metal respray, renewed interior, and fresh hood and also advisoring this
Alfa was imported to the UK from South Africa in spring 2003.
A
true enthusiast’s car, the Alfa Romeo Spider has long been admired for its
delicate balance of style, performance, and heritage, making it one of the most
desirable classic convertibles of its generation. With its evocative red
coachwork, black leatherette trim, and enduring appeal, this example offers the
perfect blend of collectability and potential.
Whether you are seeking a
stylish on going restoration, a rewarding weekend cruiser, or an appreciating
modern classic with unmistakable Italian flair, this 1975 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0
represents an exciting chance to acquire a charismatic piece of Italian
automotive history.
