1984 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce on 2040-cars
Seymour, Indiana, United States
I have had the privilege of owning this Italian work of art since October 2003. Now it's time for me to offer the beautiful car to a new owner, who hopefully will appreciate her as much as I have. It's not a "show" car, but a very sound and attractive vehicle that still turns heads when you drive by. It needs to be driven and unfortunately I no longer have the time to devote to her.
I am by no means a mechanic and this is a 30 year old car. It is very sound and drives well but like any car that's been on the road for 3 decades, it is not perfect. The synchro in 2nd gear is a little touchy....a very common issue with this model. The blower for the defroster/heater does not work. Until recently, both power windows worked fine, but now the driver's side window has stopped working (the window is up). Additionally, the driver's side door won't lock -- not sure if that's related to the power window problem. The levers for the vent windows are not attached but I do have them in the glove compartment. (Same as when I purchased the car!) On the "good" side: the car has Michelin tires with almost no wear. The radiator core has been replaced within the last month. The canvas top is in excellent condition with a clear rear window. I replaced the aftermarket radio that was in the car with a Pioneer receiver/CD player with a detachable face plate. I am including a copy of Pat Braden's Alfa Romeo Owner's Bible, a 1984 Owner's Operational Manual (50 state version) and an Alfa flag that I briefly flew on my garage. SUMMER IS NOT OVER YET! I'm offering a rare opportunity to own the Italian sports car you always wanted, at a very reasonable price. The car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Local pick up only, but I will work with a buyer that wants to ship the car at the buyer's cost. |

Next-gen Mazda MX-5 Miata mule spied 'Ring testing
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Fans of simple, lightweight motoring, rejoice - we now have images of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata undergoing testing at der Nürburgring Nordschleife. Now, to be fair, this isn't some lightly camouflaged example that will give us a great peak of what the next Miata, which will also become the next Alfa Romeo Spider, will look like. This is a mule, with the new bits hidden under a current Miata's body. That doesn't mean there aren't a few scraps of valuable information here, though.
According to our flock of camera-toting spies at the Nürburgring, the next Miata is likely to grow a bit, as new models are wont to do. In particular, it will be longer and wider, and the wheelbase is likely going to be stretched, based on the shape of the wheel wells and doors. Both of those factors will add more space in the cabin.
Those are the big indications provided by these photos, but while the MX-5 might be growing, it's a safe bet based on these images that it, and the (likely pricier) Alfa, will retain the classic, long-hood, short-deck styling that so typifies rear-drive roadsters.
Alfa Romeo considering Ferrari-developed engines for new product lineup
Sun, 06 Apr 2014A report in Bloomberg adds more details to the plans for Alfa Romeo's fourth turnaround plan in Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne's tenure, and this time Ferrari is apparently going to be part of the show. In December Automotive News Europe reported that a new Maserati-derived rear-drive architecture would be the centerpiece at Alfa Romeo, as well as coming Chrysler and Dodge products. At the time, ANE said the platform would support a new midsize sedan and wagon perhaps to be called Giulia, a fullsize sedan and a midsize crossover, with retail appearance of the product initiative commencing perhaps as soon as next year. It would be part of Fiat's $12.3-billion spend on new models and European recovery.
The Bloomberg report says that particulars haven't been finalized, but the plan is to have six new Alfas appear over the next five years, two of which would be SUVs. The futures of the Mito and Giulietta, two of the three cars Alfa currently sells and 99 percent of sales last year, aren't assured, meaning that the lineup in six years could be seven cars (including the 4C), six of which we haven't any definitive clue of yet. The top-tier versions of those cars, according to the report - perhaps the Quadrifoglio Verde - "will be equipped with motors developed by Ferrari."
Marchionne wants to get sales up to 300,000 units per year when the lineup is complete, pairing Alfa sales with Jeep's global dealer network to open up the retail channel. That kind of volume would get Fiat's Italian plants back in business properly, even though Marchionne's stance on Italy-only Alfa production would mean the end of the anticipated roadster that was to be twinned with the coming Mazda MX-5 Miata. Alfa's direction will be laid out in Detroit in May as part of the overall strategy presentation for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV.
Alfa Romeo 8C, Maserati Quattroporte and Granturismo models recalled over rust fears
Mon, 20 May 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced Maserati and Alfa Romeo are recalling certain Quattroporte, Granturismo and 8C models over potentially faulty tie rod ends. According to NHTSA, 2005-2008 Quattroporte, 2008 Granturismo and 2008 8C units may have been assembled with tie rod ends that have insufficient corrosion protection. As such, the components may rust, weaken and potentially fail. If that happens, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and cause an accident.
Maserati and Alfa Romeo will contact owners and replace the tie rod end assemblies once the recall gets underway in June. All told, 7,438 vehicles are impacted by the recall. You can read the full NHTSA notice below for more information.
