SUMMARY
A third-generation, 2-Litre Alfa Spider with a full service history and on offer at No Reserve.
DESCRIPTION
- The third generation of Alfa’s long-lived spider debuted in 1983 with the introduction of black rubber front and rear bumpers which were not universally popular, however, the arrival of Bosch electronic fuel injection proved a compensation
- The right-hand drive S3 on offer here has covered 113,000km and has a full service history although since 1998 to the current day, the car has only done 1,500 kilometres
- It was in climate controlled storage for 10 years and then reconditioned before our vendor took ownership. He invested in a new hood at that point but it has only been driven a few times since then and has been back in storage since 2017
- It's finished in Jet Black with a gorgeous Burgundy interior, a super colour combination
- This little Alfa really does need a guardian angel to show it some affection. It wouldn’t take much to bring it up to the next level. On offer at ‘No Reserve’, this could be an excellent opportunity. It’s an Alfa Spider and Summer is on the way.
