    They were poorly made rust buckets in period. I had one in the 80s, it was only 3 years old then, literally rusted before my very eyes and blew a head gasket with 70k km. I would not go near one these days.

    Here’s the report

    50 pics but no underside shots on a hoist. You can't begin to sell a car in the US without hoist pics, yet it's a rare exception to have them from dealers here.

    The vendor will have wanted to fix the underside sill rust,carpets,armrests,mousehair,A/C,clock,stonechips (looks like he has) but mechanically good.

    There is an interesting pic #6 in this SA Alfa advert I'd noticed some time ago.

    One of the reasons I bought Shagger.
    The difference between them,Roadbend, and CTS is an extremely wide margin.

    Wow. Reasonable price. I can see the window gap in one of the pics, so both window regs need rebuilding. Judging from the underneath pics, the shocks will need doing as well as the suspension bushes. So I would presume the normal failures havn't been attended to, so you'd want to budget 30 - 40k for rectification and sorting.......if you do most of it yourself.
