*Exceptional low mileage
*Rare factory RHD car
*In current ownership since 1971
*Sold for recommissioning
The Alfa Romeo Duetto Spider is one of the most iconic Italian sports cars to come out of the 1960s, with the Spider being one of the last known designs of Battista Pininfarina before his passing in 1966. The design proved to be a classic – and remained largely unchanged for three decades. This example is a rare factory right hand drive car – with only 382 RHD cars made with the 1600cc engine. Not only that but the car also has exceptionally low mileage with only 4,500 miles since new. This is largely due to the car being solely used for holidays by the vendor, who himself was a mechanic and who owned the car since 1971. The car comes with a good history file and log book, and has also been garage stored. The bodywork could do with some work in places, but overall the car is in good condition and is very original. The interior is also in good condition, bar the headlining. The engine starts and runs as it should. The car will be sold for recommissioning due to its lack of use, but it could be brought up to a very high standard by a new owner if desired.
