Early 916 Spider with
2.0 TS power; Lusso spec inc. power hood and electric leather
seats
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
124,191 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.
The
history file includes the V5C showing 6 former keepers, with the last
keeper showing 8 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) and routine maintenance invoices dating back to 2000 along with 4
old MOT certificates.
