The History and Paperwork
- Originally a rust-free LHD Italian shell
- Professionally converted to RHD
- Packed to the brim with Alfaholics upgrades
- Maintained by renowned specialists
- First registered in the UK in 2015
- Just 1 prior UK keeper
- Owner by the current keeper since 2018
- V5C, registration documents, original Italian paperwork
- Invoices for a great amount of Alfaholics parts and labour
- Invoices for previous labour and parts
This fine Alfa Romeo 1300 was originally a left-hand-drive Italian shell and was later converted to RHD as it stands today. This particular shell was chosen as it was rust-free and presented the perfect platform to develop a brilliant track car upon.
Once brought to the UK, this Alfa underwent an enormous transformation with over £36K’s worth of Alfaholic parts and specialist labour. First UK owners were Sir Drummond Bond and John Bennet (President and Chairman of the Maserati Club UK) who made the little Alfa competitive for the prestigious Vernasca Silver Flag Hill Climb in Italy, where it competed four times prior to the current owners acquisition. The full Alfaholics specification list can be found in the attached paperwork imagery, with some elements noted in the “mechanics” section of this listing. This accumulation of Alfaholics parts alone ensures the lucky new owner is getting tremendous value for money. The work qualified this car for SMRC technical race certification.
After its Alfaholics transformation, the car was later purchased by the current keeper in 2018, where it has received the same high level of care and has been expertly maintained by the likes of renowned specialist Martin Cheetham. Throughout its time with the current owner, the car has performed fantastically and is now ready to find a new home, where it will hopefully see more use on the track.
Buyers will be pleased to know that the vehicle will come with a fantastic amount of paperwork, which even includes the original Italian paperwork. Also included are previous MOT certificates, the V5C document ready for the new owner, and invoices for previous labour & parts.
The Interior
- Seam welded shell & fully welded in roll cage
- 'Aircraft style' switchgear control box with billet aluminium switches
- Sparco bucket seats with Schroth harnesses
- Alfaholics quick-release Momo steering wheel
- Flocked dashboard with SPA Design gauges
- Dual circuit bias adjust with Alfaholics billet pedals
- Fully plumbed fire extinguisher system
If you’re looking for comfy leather chairs, a sound system, and modern comforts for the daily commute, you’re definitely in the wrong place. This interior is strictly business and is fully prepared for racing. With that in mind, the current keeper has made the interior quite a pleasant environment, with the addition of a stylish quilted headliner and door bar padding both adding comforts for the possibility of road use.
Inside the car, you’ll also find 2 Recaro buckets paired with 6 point Schroth harnesses to keep you in place out on the track. Most notable of course is the fully welded in roll cage which not only offers crucial protection for passengers but also pairs with the seam-welded chassis to add a considerable amount of rigidity.
This is certainly a high-end racecar, and the interior clearly reflects the levels of care that the Alfa Romeo has received over the years. Rather surprisingly for a car of this nature, the interior is very clean and presents itself beautifully with no noticeable signs of wear or damage. Essentially, it has been expertly prepared with literally no expense - £75,000 is the latest estimate, yet the car has been sparingly used.
In the boot, you’ll find a matching spare wheel, along with a 55L foam-filled aluminium fuel tank, courtesy of Alfaholics of course.
The Exterior
- Step front model
- Fantastic retro racecar aesthetics
- Eye-catching yellow paintwork
- Brilliantly presented track car
- Composite doors, bonnet & boot lid
- Alfaholics GTA Veloce 7x15 wheels
- Full Lexan rear screen with touring style side window sliders
- Rolled arches to fit wider tyres
This wicked Alfa looks absolutely spectacular and is a truly eye-catching historic race car. Now, this car certainly isn’t a trailer queen or show car by any means, and has instead been built to the highest standard for the sole purpose of providing the greatest driving experience.
That being said, it is in absolutely superb condition for a track car and would quite easily put the majority of road-going cars to shame. The stunning yellow paintwork suits the car perfectly and shows only a few minor signs of wear. All four wheels are also in excellent condition, and wear a set of sticky Yokohama AD08 RS tyres with plenty of tread left for the new owner to enjoy.
Overall, the car appears to have been very well cared for, and could perhaps be one of the cleanest purpose-built racecars you’ll find on the market. Other than minor marks towards the lower side of the sills and a small amount of spidering in the paintwork, you’re getting an absolute stunner of a car that will no doubt continue to turn heads in the crowds.

As mentioned, this Alfa Romeo benefits from a huge array of Alfaholics upgrades and motorsport modifications, which exceeds the value of 36 thousand pounds. Most notable of which is the Alfaholics big valve Monza Nord 2000cc package, along with billet rods. As part of the Alfaholics upgrade process, the car was been dyno tested and is set up perfectly for spirited driving.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
