Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 Veloce Long term ownership, very well maintain 1978
General description :
We have a very nice 1978 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce 2000 on offer in a brilliant finish. Its white shining exterior is set of beautifully by the red interior trim. Naturally, one expects to be dazzled when it comes to Italian sports cars. Well, this car has dazzled in abundance. What a pretty picture it is! The previous owner kept the car for no less than 18 years. Going by the number of invoices since 2003 the car lacked nothing during those 18 years. The bodywork is very neat with only a few minor blemishes commiserate with the car’s age. The paintwork again has been very well looked after with only normal signs of use. The hood fits nicely and is in good shape. The re-upholstered interior is still very trim. Naturally, all instruments and controls work as they should. Mechanically the car has been maintained to a high standard. The engine runs fantastically showing off that typical Alfa Romeo Twin-cam character. The manual 5-speed transmission works precisely. The brakes and suspension are in good order contributing to the car’s fine handling manners. Whilst behind the wheel it does not take a great stretch of the imagination to understand the amount of pleasure it gave the previous owner for 18 years. The joy an Alfa Romeo Spider gives never fades. This is therefore a very nice Alfa Romeo Spider, well documented and in great shape.

About Alfa Romeo Spider
The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail, also known as the Alfa Romeo Spider Series 2, is a classic sports car that was produced by Alfa Romeo from 1970 to 1982. Here's some information about its development and features:1. Development: The Kammtail version of the Alfa Romeo Spider was introduced as a redesign of the original Spider, which was styled by Pininfarina. The Series 2 model featured several updates, including a new "Kamm" or "Kammtail" style rear end.
2. Kammtail Design: The Kammtail design was characterized by a truncated, squared-off rear end with a vertical rear window. This design element was influenced by the research of German aerodynamicist Wunibald Kamm, who found that a tapering rear end could reduce aerodynamic drag.
3. Styling and Features: The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail maintained the classic and elegant lines of its predecessor but featured updates such as a revised front grille, new bumpers, and larger taillights. The interior received some enhancements as well, including improved seating and revised dashboard layout.
4. Engine and Performance: The Spider Kammtail was offered with a range of engines throughout its production run, including inline-four engines with displacements ranging from 1.3 to 2.0 liters. These engines provided spirited performance and a thrilling driving experience, characteristic of Alfa Romeo sports cars.
5. Popularity and Collector Status: The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail has gained popularity among classic car enthusiasts due to its timeless design, open-top driving experience, and relatively accessible pricing compared to some other classic Italian sports cars. It is considered a classic car icon and continues to be appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
6. Cultural Significance: The Spider Kammtail gained significant exposure and recognition through its appearance in the 1967 film "The Graduate," where a red Alfa Romeo Spider played a prominent role. This exposure contributed to its desirability and iconic status.
The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail is celebrated for its distinctive design, enjoyable driving dynamics, and its connection to automotive history and pop culture. It remains a sought-after classic car today, valued for its timeless appeal and the exhilaration it provides behind the wheel.
