The Appeal
Is there a more elegant and stylish roadster? Mercedes-Benz may be a strong contender with the W113 'Pagoda' SL, but we're betting the Giulia Spider Tipo 101 could well outdo the SL.
This 1965 example left the factory shortly before the introduction of the elegant 105 'Duetto' and boasts the sought-after 1.6-litre version of Giuseppe Busso's superb twin-cam alloy engine.
Offered in excellent condition and accompanied by an extensive collection of documents, this little touch of 'La Dolce Vita' is capable of making a magnificent addition to any collection.

The Condition
- Neatly presented inside, out and under the bonnet
- Only slight signs of wear visible in photos
- The car was praised in the independent inspection report
- Folding soft top and tonneau cover present, both in very good condition
Designed by Pininfarina, the Giulia Spider has a stunning design, and this one looks great in Alfa's signature red colour. The paintwork is in very good condition, with minimal signs of wear, and apart from a few small areas of pitting, the chrome is in good condition. The photos show no signs of serious corrosion, and the bodywork appears straight and solid. The folding soft top and tonneau cover appear to be recent items and fit the car perfectly. The four steel wheels, with wheel covers, are also very well presented.
Inside, the cabin looks very close to its original condition, with the exception of the added floor mats and the newer stereo system. There is minimal wear to the upholstery, and the cab's controls and electrical equipment appear to be in good working order.
The Mechanics
- North 1.6-litre DOHC l4 engine
- Five-speed manual gearbox
- Very well presented and original-looking engine compartment
- Regular and sustained maintenance in recent years, with numerous invoices in the history file (see gallery below)
The owner reports that the Alfa Romeo runs well and drives trouble-free, and as the numerous invoices show, it has benefited from consistent professional servicing in recent years. The engine compartment is clean and well maintained, with no apparent signs of leaks or other common problems.
