The Alfa Romeo 2600 (series 106) was Alfa Romeo´s six-cylinder
flagship and produced from 1961 to 1968. It has become historically
significant as the last Alfa Romeo to have been fitted with an
inline six-cylinder engine having twin overhead camshafts. This had
been the traditional Alfa Romeo engine configuration since the
1920's but gave way to four-cylinder engines as the factory
oriented its production towards more economical mass-produced car
models after the Second World War. The 2600 Sprint made more of an
impression. It was a large grand touring coupé which could seat
four adults in comfort over long journeys at high speeds. The car
also inherited the sharp. modern styling of its predecessor. the
2000 Sprint. and that certainly contributed to its being the top
seller in the 2600 range. That shape had been the result of
Giorgetto Giugiaro's first major project as head designer for
Carrozzeria Bertone. and is arguably one of the most influential
designs in the history of automotive styling.

On offer is this three owner. righthand drive. 1968 Alfa Romeo
2600 Sprint which was delivered new to Belfast. Northern Ireland to
its first owner. a Mr David Wood. He was not happy with the
build quality and proceeded to have the car dismantled and
reassembled to his own very high standards. after which he kept the
car for 18 years before selling it to the second owner. The car was
then purchased by the third owner in 1995 in Northern Ireland
showing only a total of 52. 00 miles. Imported to the UK earlier
this year by the vendor. this very original and well presented 2600
Sprint is finished in black with maroon leather interior. Within
the last year a new clutch has been fitted. an oil leak from the
rear axle has been cured. rear brake callipers overhauled and the
car has been repainted to bring it to showroom condition. The car
is supplied with Northern Ireland Registration and a original
handbook. The Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint is fast becoming recognised
for the fine tourer it is with prices on the increase. This
is a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine low mileage. righthand
drive Alfa Romeo in excellent condition throughout.
