The Alfetta was launched in May 1972 in saloon form. and in 1974
a sleek and handsome fastback 2-door GT version was introduced.
Styled by Giugiaro. this coupé was not just a beautiful shape but
was also aerodynamically efficient with a drag coefficient of just
0. 39. A front-mounted engine drives the rear wheels through a rear
mounted transaxle with the gearbox integral with the differential
giving a near 50-50 weight distribution over both axles providing
excellent stability especially at speed and in windy
conditions. Suspension is independent by torsion bars and
wishbones at the front and by coil springs and a De Dion axle
located by trailing arms and transverse Watts linkage at the rear.
Braking is by discs front and rear. and steering by rack and
pinion. By 1976. the Coupé was powered by a 1962cc version of what
is now known as Alfa's classic Nord DOHC in-line four cylinder
engine. Producing some 122bhp at 5. 00rpm. this was sufficient to
accelerate the Alfa to 60mph in 9. 5 seconds and on to a top speed
of around 120mph.

This very original early Alfetta GTV has been garaged throughout
its life and has only covered 38. 00 miles from new. The
vendor informs us that this Alfa Romeo is a delight to drive with a
fine engine. smooth transaxle gearbox and enjoyable handling for
those who like to actually drive their cars. Finished in red. the
car is reported to be completely rust free. has never required any
welding and is in excellent condition underneath. having been
undersealed and waxoyled many years ago. The interior is completely
original with grey velour seats in fine condition and also benefits
from a period radio/cassette player. It is believed the rare
set of Momo wheels have been on this Alfa Romeo from new and the
car is also fitted with a full 'Ansa' exhaust system. The car is
supplied with a V5C registration document. an MoT test certificate
which expires in May 2014. the original handbook and a fair amount
of history including old MoT test certificates and tax discs. This
is a rare opportunity to purchase a low mileage Alfa which has been
looked after its whole life by enthusiastic owners who have
maintained it in top condition. Price guide £4. 00 - £6. 00.
