Description
A lovely original condition Alfa Romeo Spider Convertible 3 ltr V6 24 Valve for sale.
House sale and therefore loss of (heated) garage where it has always been kept forces a very reluctant sale.
It was only a year old when I purchased it from The Great Trade Centre (now Car Giant) in White City, London In December 2002, having been registered to Fiat UK head office, who had used it as a display car in their showroom. It had 33 miles on the clock! So I am the 1st actual owner
It was serviced and Mot'd by a main dealer in Amersham whilst still under warranty for the first 8 years, since then it has been maintained by myself and a mechanic mate who has done all the cambelt changes etc, (new one fitted last summer so will be fine for another 5yrs)
Both rear drop links have just been replaced and it has 2 new front tyres and a new battery and the rear exhaust box has been removed and repaired/ welded, as per the advises on last year's mot. Now with New MOT till 29/ 09/ 25!
It is currently taxed and insured for test runs until the 30th September.
A few Underbody pics just added which show how clean, solid and original it is, no welding ever been needed. Still in original underseal coating with a few stonechip oversprays to jacking points etc.
Brand new spare wheel included in sale.
Warranty years service history and invoices, original master key and spares, alarm code card and all original booklets in folder.
A very well looked after and cherished car!I was looking for a convertible at the time I bought this car and tried out several others at the Trade Centre, but kept coming back to this one and finally decided it was the right colour, was the most comfortable and just had a better overall look and feel to it than its BMW, AUDI etc counterparts that were available. Also the fact it was pretty much brand new with only 33 miles on it probably helped as well. It really is a great car to drive and I have loved using it every summer. Very rarely was it used in the winter although I do remember driving it in the snow one year as my rear wheel drive transit was going nowhere but the Spider being front wheel drive and that big heavy engine held it down on the road and I couldn't believe how well it performed.
It has never really let me down over the years and I've always been confident in going on long distances without any problems. Drove all round Devon last summer. I am definitely going to miss it but unfortunately have no choice, and hope that it gives its new owner as much pleasure as myself.
