Alfasud History cloverleaf

I was 12 years old at the time the Alfasud was purchased in 1984 by my parents as the family car, a 1 year old ex-Alfa GB car with 6000 miles on the clock.

Moving on to 1989, the sud had been relegated to second car to a new 33 1.7 Veloce, making the sud the car I learned to drive in, eventually becoming my first car in 1992 which I have kept ever since.

Restoration cloverleaf

In 2022 the Alfasud underwent a full body restoration.  It was in a remarkably good condition, with main repairs isolated to the front A post, windscreen surround and minor repairs to the front sills.  Front wings and wing rails were previously fitted.
