For full transparency: this car was recorded Cat C in September 2013, due to light bodywork damage being deemed uneconomical to repair in respect of value of the vehicle at the time (Values were very low then). This would now have been a Cat N classification. Damage was cosmetic (Offside Bumper and bonnet - I have photos). The vehicle was repaired, inspected and returned to use. This all occured prior to my ownership and I have not had any issues in the 7 years I have owned the car pertaining to this and have had the car maintained by specialists. The GTV Cup is a limited edition inspired by the mono-make Alfa GTV Cup race series in Italy.
Only 419 cars were built in total, with 264 LHD versions and 155 RHD versions. Two different engines were used in the production: 180 cars were built with the 3. 0 V6 24V (all 155 RHD versions were 3. 0 models) and 239 cars with 2. 0 Twin Sparks.
The 3. 0 V6 cars were only painted in Alfa Romeo Red while 2. 0 TS cars were almost exclusively painted in Grigio Chiaro (there are just a few examples in red).
Limited edition plaques, that were made of silver, differed for the RHD and LHD versions, having red and black texts accordingly and each run was separately numbered (i. e. there is both a LHD 001 and a RHD 001).
The Cup version of the GTV differs from the standard car in the exterior factory fitted bodykit (made by Zender), although mechanically they are the same as the regular specifications. The Cup exclusive interior offers half-leather upholstery and the plastic centre console fascias were finished in a darker shade of grey.
