Vehicle Detail
>>> Please click on the link below the description to view over 40 high resolution photos <<< Up for auction is a beautiful and well preserved low 59k mile example of a Pinanfarina designed Rosso Spider Veloce. The saddle tan interior, boot, and original carpets compliment the exterior color well making it an absolute head turner. The vehicle starts with ease, idles and runs out nicely with zero issues of smoking or overheating. The clutch is sure and gear shifts are crisp and responsive never "popping" out of gear. The second gear synchro usually plaguing most all Alfa's is the strongest I have driven. All fluids have been serviced running Agip synthetic in the lump and Agip synthetic 75w90 in the box. All gauges and accessories work as factory designed and the vehicle brakes straight and true. A seasonal tune up was recently completed and the Alfa easily passed an emissions test last month and has neither issues of rust nor rot as it has been in Colorado it's entire vehicle life. The Alfa runs exhaust headers for a pep in performance and a sportier exhaust note and the tire set is under 2,000 miles from new. The shock set has been recently replaced and the premium canvas soft cover top is flawless. A soft rubber front chin spoiler has been added to (in my opinion) balance out the rear soft spoiler for pure esthetics. With a simple hand wax, the car shines deeply with no dents, dings or scratches to the smooth and even finish. I sold my other Celeste Aqua Alfa Romeo Spider last month to a very satisfied buyer and anticipate the same again with this one. Overall, a beautiful and honest original 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce which will bring the new owner years of proud ownership. A true pleasure to zoom around town or Sunday drive in the country with -- I would have no reservations driving this Alfa to either coast tomorrow. In a world of soap shaped Miata's -- go Italiano! Please ask any and all questions prior to placing a bid and I will answer them as quickly and honestly as possible. Inspections are certainly welcome prior to auction ending -- not after please, as this auction is to purchase and not to simply hold. Any repeated questions I will display below for all to review. Low reserve price is set at half of industry leading Hagerty Classic Car evaluation guide's "average" total value. I certainly do not intend to exclude anyone, but "zero bidders" are discouraged from bidding (learned unfortunately through years of non-payments) by having a valid Paypal account necessary. A $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction completion, with the balance due within 7 days. Again, if you have any questions just let me know. Thank you for looking, and good luck if you choose to place a bid.
