2007 Alfa Romeo Spider JTS

This Spider started its life in the UK being sold new by HR Owen in London in November 2007, and returned for its first service before heading west where it continued to enjoy the attention of Alfa main dealer technicians for regular service thanks to Fish Brothers in Swindon.

It has continued to have regular maintenance through to it’s 2019 annual service, before changing hands to the current owner in 2020, but thanks to the events of that year and having a number of cars it has seen very little use in his ownership, and prior to this we are not aware of any additional repairs needing to be done.

The owner has had it MOT’d in June this year, so it is covered until summer 2023.

The Alfa’s bodywork looks excellent. Walking around the car we see no dings, dents or damage and the silver paint is generally superb.

There are very few marks around the car - aside from the odd stone chip, there are a some of scrapes on the prominent nose around the grill which have been touched in, a few stone chips ahead of the rear arches and on the lower read edge of the drivers front wheel arch a small area of bubbling is showing through the paint.

It wears 19” factory alloys, which are beautiful in both design and condition. They have no chips or curb damage and have recent looking tyres with very deep tread all round.

The black fabric hood is also in excellent shape, there are no scuffs, rips or nicks in the material, the glass rear window is bright and clear and the power folding mechanism works just as it should.\

The dramatic lights are a notable feature of this series of Alfas. The chrome effect of the headlamp bezels, as well as that of the Coure Sportivo, the sporting heart grill, is all very good and the tail lamps which mirror the triple stacked lamps, are bright and clear too.

Alfa use the best leather for their interiors Their seats look incredible and last very well, so the black leather seats in this car are in fantastic condition, showing very little sign of wear even t the drivers seat bolster. The leather continues onto the door cards, this is lovely, but the metal trim piece above has many tiny dings, perhaps from someone wearing rings or clutching the keys pushing the door.

The carpets are also very good with almost no marks, and in the back there isn’t really room for a rear seat so Alfa haven’t pretended Instead there is a leather back panel matching the front seats and a pair of lockable storage boxes below.

The dashboard is typically Alfa Romeo beautiful. The bright brushed aluminium centre panel and trim pieces contrast the black of the surround, the triple centre dials mirror the triple vents above, and the cowled instruments all look stunning.

There are similar time dent marks on the centre console metal below the ignition key slot, a common issue as keys hang down and knock the soft aluminium.

The original basic radio has been replaced with a far more modern and feature packed touch screen double din item, which feats neatly with the correct bezel.

Below the Alfa all appears straight and true, with no noticeable accident damage and factory paint. There is some surface rust showing towards the rear of the floor pan which the new owner should have undersealed before winter.

Under the bonnet there are no signs of fluid leaks and the engine starts and runs as it should and the owner tells us it drives very well.

The history file and word of mouth from the previous owner suggest car has been fortunate enough not to need much beyond regular servicing, which has been attended to annually, from main dealers and Alfa specialists.

It had a fresh MOT in June 2022, the only advisory being binding brakes as it had been parked for a while but these are freeing off with use.

The Brera Spider was the last car to carry that iconic name and with its stunning, dramatic looks is a car to see and be see in.

Overall the condition if the car is very good, the interior is beautiful and the body work very good. There are just a couple of small areas needing attention but nothing serious and it has below average miles for the year and a full service book.

Our estimate for this car is £6,000 - £8,000.
