    I just picked up this Giulia Spider from Treviso which is near Venice Italy.
    It did the 600km drive with ease, with the top down it was a dream.
    So many are red, but I wanted this Grafite Grigio with red interior.
    It was hard to find one, but I'm really pleased with what I found.
    Now I have to make a few small mods to make the technical inspection in Germany (TÜV)
    Comments welcome
    Ciao

    Stunning, such a beautiful car. Congratulations.

    I bought my Fulvia in Bologna and drove back across the alps in it having previously only driven it once around the block in italy. Where in Germany are you based?

    What a coincidence, a fellow member of one of the car clubs I belong to, purchased earlier this year the exact same car, in the exact same colour! He as well bought the car because he liked the grey better than the popular red. True, it's a very rare colour and suits the shape of the car.

    Are you an owner of an Abarth 750 GT Zagato (as per your name on this website)? If so, I would love to see photos of that car if you have...

    Hi all,
    Cajun: I have to admit I didn't even have a camera with we when I made the drive home! We just made sure we enjoyed the drive and took our time. Stopping for lots of esspresso's and filling the trunk with wine and other goodies.
    Peter: yes I have an Abarth Zagato 750GT, but it is very much an ongoing restoration. I started about 3 years ago and don't have as much time as I used to. I couldn't wait to finish it so I bought the Alfa to keep me going in style!
    Here are a couple of shots of the Abarth as I bought it and the floorpan repairs.
    Cheers

    There are two non red Giulietta's at Hyman at the moment, a black one and a (metallic) grey, but they are not cheap. I prefer the original grafite grigio, but I am biased!
