This is a 1985 Alfa Romeo GTV 6. a rare UK Supplied RHD car with only 40 k Miles from new! It is finished in Silver with Black Velour and in an amazing condition. It comes with all books and history files and has only had 4 owners from new.

The new Alfetta was released in 1972 with a mechanical layout which was reminiscent of the late 1930 s and 1940 s 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 de Dion 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 V 6 engine.

This beautiful 2. 5 litre. V 6 example 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 Mo T test certificate valid until March 2016 and. we think. is very good value for a future classic. These V 6 cars are the best car Alfa made in the Eighties. are practical. beautiful and getting rarer by the day!
