Description
I am offering for sale a very rare Alfa Romeo 145 Quadrifoglio in superb condition
• Series 1
• 150 bhp 2. 0 Twin Spark. (model without phase regulator)
• 188, 000 kms
• Sold on 30/ 01/ 1997
This Alfa is in remarkable condition, whether in terms of bodywork, upholstery, or mechanicals.
The red still shines with full brilliance, the dashboard and fittings are in perfect condition (no cracks) and the leather upholstery with Alfa Romeo logo inlaid is like new.
The ceiling light and the door panels present a very neat appearance and show no signs of detachment.
The glass has no stone chips; the passenger-side window is occasionally a little temperamental.
The vent louvers positioned on the driver’s door are slightly unclipsed.
The steering wheel and the gear knob are covered in black leather with red stitching echoing the three parallel red stripes that decorate the door panels.
The engine breathes its 150 hp with a typically Alfa soundtrack.
Powers gradually build in a clear and linear fashion with a lively temperament, delivering real driving pleasure on every journey.
Idle may occasionally show a very slight instability.
Gears engage quickly, smoothly, with no hiccups.
Downshifts are smooth with no snags.
This car belonged for 10 years to a careful owner and previously to a member of an Alfa club.
The vehicle has been maintained with care and runs perfectly. The mechanicals are sound and the car is reliable and pleasant to use.
The vehicle has always been garage-kept and has been started regularly.
The original wheels are very nice despite a few minor scratches on two of them, and the four Continental tyres in 195/ 55/ 15 V are almost new.
The chassis is sound with no corrosion.
The original equipment:
• ABS
• Driver airbag
• Steering wheel adjustable
• Driver’s seat height-adjustable
• Front thermo-insulating and electric windows
• Power steering
• Central locking
• Heated electric mirrors
The options on this model are:
• Leather upholstery
• Air conditioning (to be serviced)
• Passenger airbag
The oil change is recent and the timing belt has been done 6, 000 km ago (replaced in 2018, receipts available).
This 145 Quadrifoglio is a genuine pleasure to drive, a true Alfa Romeo, lively and expressive, delivering authentic sensations.
This Series 1 has the advantage of being free of a phase regulator, which simplifies maintenance and reduces running costs.
A particularly agile car and, despite its 30 years, it remains perfectly usable in today’s traffic with the benefits of its liveliness and compact dimensions (length 4100 mm and width 1700 mm).
As for me, I am a true Alfa enthusiast (I own several), and this 145 has been a real favourite, both for the model’s rarity and for its remarkable condition.
It has always been treated with care, allowing the engine and gearbox to warm up and to cool down before turning off.
