The Appeal
Popularised by Dustin Hoffman in the 1967 film 'The Graduate', the first series Alfa Romeo 'Duetto' Spider was the prettiest four-cylinder roadster of its day, and arguably still is nearly sixty years on.
This 1967 example has been comprehensively restored to a high standard, with particular attention paid to both the exterior finish and interior presentation. The combination of crisp white paintwork and rich red leather upholstery creates a classic Italian sports car aesthetic that remains as appealing today as it was when new.
