The Appeal

Born from Marcello Gandini's celebrated design for the 1967 Montreal World's Fair and powered by a road-going evolution of the legendary 33 Stradale's V8, the Alfa Romeo Montreal occupies a unique place in automotive history. With only 3,925 examples built across a seven-year production run, and no V8-powered successor until the 8C arrived some 30 years later, the Montreal remains one of the rarest and most coveted Alfa Romeos of its era.

This 1973 example, originally from France and wearing its striking Rosso Arancio paintwork, presents a compelling opportunity. The mechanicals were restored in 2024, with attention paid to both the engine and chassis. The vendor describes the bodywork as being in very good condition and states that the fabric interior shows little wear. We're informed that the car offers a sorted, road-ready driving experience, marking a rare chance to acquire a well-maintained Montreal.
