Early 916
Spider with 2.0 TS power; Lusso spec including power hood and electric leather
seats; currently showing 124,264 miles
Dating from November 1998 this stylish Type 916 Alfa Romeo Spider
comes to us in desirable Lusso TwinSpark guise, its zesty 2.0 16 valve engine
developing 153Bhp (as a 1998 face-lift example, up from 148Bhp) driving the
front wheels via 5-speed manual transmission.
Finished in typical Alfa Red with contrasting black Mohair hood, the
car sits well on its pretty 16-inch alloy wheels. Inside, we find the typically
inviting interior of the GTV/Spider model with black, fluted leather seats and
immersive cockpit design with sporty silver trim, air conditioning, CD player
and here, electrically operated roof.
Showing
124,264 miles, the car looks well, but with a few signs of age. The hoods rear
screen could do with a clean or replacing at some point. We were unable to
get the roof to retract since its been on site so this may need looking
into.
The history file includes the V5C
showing six former keepers, with the last keeper for eight years.
In addition, we find the owner’s pack with manuals, current MOT valid until June
2026 with only 3 advisories (the radiator was replaced to stop the coolant leak
straight after the MOT).
Included are details of
a replacement centre exhaust section and a selection of bills including a £2,375
spend in October 2013 (on a repaint, central locking repair, timing belt service
and various suspension components and other assorted parts). Also routine
maintenance invoices dating back to 2000 along with 4 old MOT
certificates.
