History of my Alfa Romeo Guilietta 1.4 16V (150) Speciale. cloverleaf

Ciao! (This is Bella!) Thanks for popping by, This is my Alfa Romeo Guilietta 150 Speciale in Magnesio Grigio. registered in September 2018. This vehicle was sold new from the factory In Milan and delivered to an Alfa Romeo dealer in Exeter ,South Devon, UK. Unfortuntely,  the first owner having only covered minimal milleage had to give up driving due to Ill health and the vehicle was sold back to the dealer.

 

Once on sale my mum and I went to veiw the car as we have always had Alfa Romeo cars in the family. I currently owned a 2013 Guilietta 105 JTDm collezione. my mum, a Mito 155 Veloce. this vehicle was to be the replacement for the Mito.

 

After a drive out and a good look around the deal was completed and my mum was the proud owner of Bella!, Various PDI work was completed including light body work, wheel refurbishment, brakes, tyres, MOT, and a full service.

 

I had always joked that when the time came to move Bella on I would buy her. After just two years and again minimal milleage an opportunity came to buy it! After some considaration (and a few drinks one evening) later the deal was complete and I became the new owner as such keeping the vehicle in the family rather then it going to trade.

 

Always cherished as an Alfa Romeo should be, its had all the work completed and I continue to enjoy her as a daily driver. It needs some body work and again the wheels refurbishing which I will get completed but all mechanical items are sorted and it's great fun the drive! this becomes Alfa Romeo number 22 for me and the Alfa bug is still going strong!

 

Thanks for reading! 

 

Arriverderci!
