A very good selection of Alfa Romeos. I hadn’t realised how many different models Alfa made albeit some were prewar and I wouldn’t have any of much knowledge of those! But my favourite is still the 2000 GTV I used to borrow one from the local dealer for whom I used to help out demonstrating cars on a Saturday a nice little earner to have! I used to be the one he choose to demonstrate what he termed as their fast cars and of these the most rare one I used to demonstrate was the Montreal as it was left hand drive and no one wanted to drive it. I had been fortunate in that I passed my driving test abroad so LHD cars didn’t make any difference to me. I recall demonstrating the Montreal and eventually it was sold but I suspect that it’s new owner didn’t really like it and I never found out if he kept it.
I do like most of the vintage models, can't really choose a favourite of those. One of my school teachers always had Alfa's, the main two that spring to mind are a GTV in white and a Spider in lime green. All bought new, the latter of those I seem to remember spent most of its life back at the dealers garage which was a shame because they were nice looking cars. I know your teachers can seem old but this chap was probably ten years off retirement, long since passed away. Thanks for sharing this collection. 👍
Great selection as usual.I’ve always admired Alfas but never dared to own one.Am I alone in getting confused between Giullia’s and Giullettas?Keep the vid’s coming,they’re very enjoyable.
Thanks for the show-I think you may have the Berlina and Guilias mixed up-Guilia shorter and boxier-Berlina similar but longer came after it. I have had one of each and fabulous cars !
Thanks for watching, technically any 4 dr saloon is a berlina (simply by being a saloon), although my understanding is that not all of the saloons were known as "Berlina" as part of the official model name. I think. Maybe :-)
Thanks for this great video. My favourite Alfa is the Giulia 1600 4-door saloon. Were they available in right hand drive in the UK back in the day? It's just that most of them I see are lhd and that, for me, is a pity. I far prefer the cars.

Alfa Romeo, what a rich history they have building some wonderfully and diverse cars like the 30's grand prix cars and my favourite the Montreal
Belle macchine! The Suds, GTVs and Montreals are my favourites. 😁
Thankyou for this video, I absolutely love alfa romeos! My dad has owned pretty much all of the alfas from the 90s range, and I currently own a 916!
Thanks for this collection of photos. I love the 1600 & 1750 Berlinas.

yes ofcourse they were available in rhd, the ones you have seen are likely to be personal imports.
5:38 is a Giulia Super Ti, not a Berlina
