The new Alfetta was released in 1972 with a mechanical layout
which was reminiscent of the late 1930s and 1940s Alfetta 158 and
159 Grand Prix cars and still had the twin overhead cam engine of
the earlier post-war Alfas. What linked them to the racing Alfettas
was the shifting of the clutch and gearbox assembly to the rear of
the car and the attachment of the gearbox to the differential. This
transaxle assembly was located to the complex deDion rear
suspension that incorporated coil springs and telescopic shock
absorbers. The progressive-rate front suspension used torsion bars
in place of the familiar coil springs of the earlier Giulias and
Giuliettas. The design gave a near 50/50 weight distribution
throughout the car. which resulted in the car having exceptional
handling characteristics. The twin-cam engine was replaced in 1981
by what is considered today as the legendary Alfa Romeo V6
engine.

This beautiful 2. 5 litre. V6 example presented in silver with
black velour trim started life in May 1985 as a company car to an
executive for the oil producers. Shell Ltd. It. unsurprisingly. had
a stamped original service book when owned as a company car but
after an early life with light use. was dry stored for some nine
years. Since having been awoken from its slumber. the car has been
subject to a full engine and gearbox rebuild which was some 3. 00
miles ago and a full restoration. giving us this lovely example
today. With no modifications from new. this fantastic example with
very low mileage is offered with an MoT test certificate valid
until March 2016 and. we think. is very good value for a future
classic.
