The Appeal
Often prized as one of Alfa Romeo's biggest modern triumphs, the Type 916 Spider is based upon decades of refinement. A steady evolution of the ultimate sports convertible - with stylish Italian styling and spirited performance, these are the definition of a modern classic - and one that offers a superior experience on the road.
This particular 2002 example has recently been refreshed after a period in storage. That work has now been completed, with everything working as it should and a fresh MOT. Put simply, this 916 is ready and waiting to hit the road with its lucky new owner.
