Introduction cloverleaf

'GP51 OCJ' belongs to our fantastic, 2001, Alfa Romeo 147 Twin Spark. This particular example is a five-door, 2.0L Lusso, in red, with approximately 100,000 miles on the clock at the time of writing. We acquired this lovely 147 in June 2023, as the fourth owners of this car, and intend to preserve it's fantastic condition for as long as we are able to. 

Since acquiring our 147, it has had a full cambelt replacement courtesy of Autolusso Penrith, servicing at 6,000 mile intervals, a front suspension rebuild, a full brake overhaul, and a whole host of other repairs and maintenance jobs, to preserve the originality of this example, currently retaining three consecutive 'advisory free' MOTs.

Specification cloverleaf

This specific 147 was ordered with just about every optional extra available. With an OTR price of roughly £16,000, a further £6,500 was spent on extras, totalling just shy of £23,000 - which in 2001, was worth roughly £40,000 in today's money. 

Here is a list of some of this 147's fantastic features and options:

● Full black leather interior

● Heated seats

● Nav+ Dashboard with full Nav+ options

● Bose Sound System

● Blaupunkt 10 CD Changer

● Dual Zone Climate Control

● Winter Pack

● Electric Sunroof

● Boot Cargo Hold/Net

There are a plethora of other options also, all of which are listed on the original spec/order sheet that came with the abundance of content in regards to this car's phenomenal Service History, Original Sales Brochures, Warranty Cards, Road Maps, Manuals, Key Codes and other ‘New Car Goodies’.

This 147 did originally come with “17 Super Sport alloys, but they were not fitted, or present when we acquired it - instead, riding on “17 Collezione Alloys. Our goal is to at some point, acquire some "16 or "17 peroid correct alloys.
