 Alfa Romeo GTV Twin Spark
Black MOT - March 2015
Tax - 31 Oct 2014
V5 Present Mileage - 218465 (has had a replacement engine)
I bought this car a few months ago when I returned from traveling to get me around and travel some of Europe but I’ve now managed to secure a job with a company car so the car doesn’t get any use! It’s a lovely example of a classic Alfa and as everyone has told me you can’t consider yourself a true car enthusiast until you have owned an Alfa! The previous owner had it for over 9 years and spent a lot of money on maintaining it to a good standard which does show, the history documents of the car provide evidence of this.
Engine:
Current mileage on the chassis is 218,465miles The engine was changed by the previous owner by a professional garage at approx 176,000miles which included a new clutch and cambelt kit. (ive been told by the previous owner that the replacement engine had approx 78,000miles on it) Car has been serviced every 12 monthsWhen I bought the car I serviced it again myself changing oil, oil ilter and air filter. Car drives well I haven’t had any issues with it at all and ive been driving to and from London and Yorkshire other than a slight oil leak but the twin spark engine uses oil so it should be checked frequently anyway. A massive file full of thousands of pounds worth of receipts from Turin Motors and Alfatech including wishbones, servicing, engine replacement, front brake lines, wishbones, windscreen to mention just a few.After I parked up the other night the fan didnt turn off, i will look into this asap, just with work its very difficult at the moment, ive been told its likely to be the temperature sensor that needs a clean, im not sure...
    Exterior, interior & wheels:   Black paint which has bubbling around the bonnet and n/s rear panel. There are a few marks here and there which you would expect but still comes up well with a polish Factory fitted rear spoiler with brake light - quite rare Wheels were refurbished in anthracite when I bought the car but not to an amazing standard but looks good; one of the wheels had a lot of paint flaking which was just painted over. Looks much better than they did, the pics are before the refurb ive got more of them now.4 good tyres with plenty of life and a spare
Brand new brake discs and pads fitted as they were an advisory on the last MOT so i thought it best to get them changed - these have done less than 1000miles and rub slightly at crawling speed so I think they still need bedding in?Could do with having the wheels balanced as at higher speed you can feel the steering wheel wobble slightly.
New exhaust rear section in Jan 14 Interior is cloth which provides good support, the drivers seat was replaced so minimal bolster wear. Looks great inside. Drivers side door card has been cracked by the seat belt (common problem) New Front badge as the last one was faded   Summary:
It’s a great car and lovely to drive I’d keep it if it would be used, but at the moment it just sits in my garage. Ive tried to be as honest as possible so the car may have some issues but with a little attention it would be lovely. I’m open to offers and viewings are welcome, London would be best during the week, I may be able to get up to York on the weekend for serious interest.
Usual ebay rules apply, you are bidding to buy not to haggle when you arrive, the car has a low reserve set. I have plently more photos and can arrange viewings during the week in the evening and whenever on the weekends, for a test drive you will need evidence of insurance. Car is sold as seen and viewing is highly recommended.
