Alfa Romeo Spider Buyers Guide

As with many cars of the 1960s and 1970s, there are some important mechanical and body issues with the Alfa Romeo Spider that should always be inspected prior to purchase. Rust protection, for example, was nearly non-existent during these years and repairs are often complex and costly. For this reason alone, it is always best to buy an Alfa Romeo Spider with the best body you can find. Another important consideration to make is the condition of the engine. The four-cylinder, all-alloy twin-cam engine that was fitted to the Spider is renowned for being quite exceptional for its era; however, they dont take neglect very well. The most common issue is a blown head gasket. Yet, if the Spiders engine is maintained property, it should last for more than 120,000 miles without needing a rebuild. Lastly, engine mountings have a habit of failing (particularly on the exhaust side), so buyers should ensure there are inspected thoroughly. Securing a pre-purchase inspection with a qualified Alfa Romeo specialists is always a great idea when purchasing one of these special classics.
