The Appeal

This is a very special example of one of Alfa Romeo's best-loved and best-known saloons. In remarkable condition, it looks as if it has just come out of a time machine: it is a car with few kilometres and extremely original, right down to the factory paintwork and interior.
Looking at the photographs, it is hard to believe that this is a car from 44 years ago, such is the level of preservation. All this adds to the intrinsic appeal of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, a balanced and fun transaxle sports car.
This car has been stored in a dry, unused garage for 25 years, but has been regularly started up to keep the mechanics in working order. It has subsequently been carefully restored to shape, receiving a service and overhaul of the brake system and carburettors. It is offered for sale with the high added value of an ASI Targa Oro certification and a recent overhaul.
The Giulietta is one of Alfa Romeo's most prized saloons and this truly original survivor is a fantastic find and an unmissable opportunity.

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
€0 to €9,999 €100.00
€10,000 to €49,999 €250.00
€50,000 to €99,999 €500.00
€100,000 + €1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
