About this Alfa Romeo Giulia

With Pininfarina styling, Italian flair and a responsive 1.6-litre engine, the Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider has all the hallmarks of a fantastic sports car.
Introduced in 1962, the Giulia Spider was a development of the earlier Giulietta Spider, with a new, enlarged 1.6-litre engine in place of the original 1.3-litre offering, bringing increased torque and power across the rev range. Aesthetically, very little changed from the Giulietta with the only notable difference being the inclusion of a small bulge on the bonnet in order to clear the larger 1.6-litre engine.

According to the Alfa Romeo Certificato Di Origine, this beautiful Tipo 101.23 LHD Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Spider - Chassis No: AR 378844 and Engine No: AR0051408256 is a 'Matching Numbers' car and it was built in Italy on 3rd January 1964 and first registered in Broni, Italy on 30th July 1964.
It is finished in its original colour scheme of Rosso Red with Black Nero trim and a Black Soft Top and retains its original 1570cc Engine and 5 Speed Gearbox and its original 15" Steel Wheels with Chrome Hub Caps.

The car was taken to South Africa by its first Italian owner in the mid 1960's when he moved with his job to SA and after a couple of years he sold it to a man in Port Elizabeth. He did not have the car for long and he sold it to a Mr Harold Ainslie who gave the car to his son Alan as a 21st Birthday present in October 1972. The car was used regularly by Alan Ainslie before he had a comprehensive restoration and full mechanical rebuild carried out between 2009 and 2017 by specialists in the Cape Town area. All chrome trim was re-chromed by a specialist, a new Black Mohair hood was fitted + a new Windscreen and many other new parts all supplied by Classic Alfa here in the UK.

The history file contains all the invoices from the workshop for the body restoration, a log from the garage for all mechanical works carried out, all invoices from Classic Alfa for parts used + quite a few photographs of the restoration. Since completion in late 2015, he advises that the car has covered no more than 3,000 miles, but after almost 50 years of ownership, Mr Ainsley decided to sell the car and it was purchased by ourselves through a dealer in Cape Town in July 2022 and imported to the UK.

The car has just been UK registered and issued with the age related number plate DAP 534B and upon sale the car will come with our own customer care package including a pre sales Service and MOT and our own 6 months mechanical breakdown Parts & Labour Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required.

The car is of course Road Tax Free and ULEZ compliant.

This really is a fantastic car to drive and will surely be a great investment for the future as well as being a car that can be driven and enjoyed and as the car was previously registered in Italy from new, it will be able to go back to Europe with no duty/vat to be paid.
