1975 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT 1800 Coupe – A One-Owner, Time-Warp Masterpiece
There are survivors, and then there are miracles.
This 1975 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT 1800 Coupe is the finest, most original example you are ever likely to see—a one-owner, time-warp masterpiece that has lived its entire life in the dry, sun-drenched climate of South Africa. Unlike the rust-ravaged, poorly restored examples that litter the market, this car is completely rot-free, never welded, never needing to be. It is as Alfa Romeo built it, untouched by time, and preserved like few others on the planet.
A true one-owner car from new, it has been garaged indoors its entire life, driven sparingly, and cared for with the kind of obsessive attention only a true Alfisti can provide.
A Pure Alfa Romeo Driving Experience
Under the bonnet sits the legendary 1. 8L DOHC twin-cam engine, an absolute jewel of Italian engineering. It sings to 6, 000 RPM effortlessly, pulling with the kind of soul and urgency that modern cars could never hope to replicate. Paired with Alfa’s revolutionary rear-mounted transaxle for perfect 50:50 weight distribution, this car is light on its feet, eager through corners, and alive in a way that only the greatest Italian sports cars can be.
The five-speed manual gearbox—a masterpiece in itself—offers the slickest shifts you’ll ever experience in a classic Alfa, making every drive an event. The suspension, with its torsion-bar front and De Dion rear setup, delivers razor-sharp handling and an intoxicating connection to the road.
Adding to its mechanical perfection, the original Solex carburettors have just been meticulously rebuilt, ensuring flawless throttle response and smooth power delivery. A significant amount of money has been spent with one of the most respected Alfa Romeo master technicians, ensuring that this Alfetta runs and drives exactly as it did when it left the factory.
A Design That Defined an Era
Penned by the legendary Giorgetto Giugiaro, the Alfetta GT is an undeniable design icon—wedge-shaped, aggressive, and unmistakably Alfa Romeo. The factory-correct Maize Yellow paintwork is flawless, the panel gaps are perfect, and the brightwork gleams like the day it left the factory.
The original Campagnolo alloy wheels remain in stunning condition, wrapped in period-correct tires that still hold the car’s authentic stance.
An Interior That Feels Like 1975
Step inside, and you are immediately transported back in time. The unmarked, original black upholstery remains soft, supple, and free from wear, the dashboard is completely crack-free, and every switch, gauge, and control functions exactly as Alfa intended. Even the original Alfa-branded radio is still in place—an almost unheard-of detail in a car of this age.
Everything about this car screams originality and preservation, from the factory steering wheel to the perfectly preserved carpets and headliner. A Collector’s Dream – Available for the First Time
As a seasoned and respected collector of classic cars, I have spent years curating the finest examples of motoring history. This Alfetta GT has been one of my most treasured possessions, kept in climate-controlled conditions, meticulously maintained, and driven only on the best of days.
However, due to the ongoing political instability in South Africa, I am selling off my entire collection inventory. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the right buyer to acquire a museum-quality Alfetta GT 1800, a car that simply does not exist in this condition anymore.
Worldwide Shipping – Safe, Secure, and Professional
For international buyers, I have negotiated a special shipping rate with Freight Factory, ensuring that this car is transported safely, professionally, and with the care it deserves to any port worldwide. Whether you’re in Europe, the USA, the Middle East, or Australia, your dream Alfa will arrive exactly as it left.
This is the best of the best—a car for the true connoisseur. No stories, no excuses, no disappointments.
