I’m going to admit that I’ve always found the styling of the Alfa Romeo Berlina (1750 or 2000) to be a bit on the awkward side. There is something wrong with the way the rear window sits — perhaps a bit too flat and upright. It doesn’t need to be crazy like a Rover SD1, […]

Despite (or perhaps in spite of) the terrible weather on the island, classic 2-seat roadster for the masses was pioneered and beaten to death by the British.

Alright, the post headline is tortured, but stay with me, it gets better, I promise. Say the word platform sharing and dirty words are muttered. I think this comes from the GM badge engineering era of the 70’s and 80’s. Alfa Romeo did it’s version of platform sharing in the form of the spider (roadster), […]

It isn’t a car you will find at your local Friday night car show, or even at an annual collection of British cars because the […]
The Alfa Romeo 2000 Berlina was a 105 series sedan that shared many of its mechanical parts with the gorgeous GTV coupe. The Berlina (sedan) version has enjoyed surprising price appreciation in the past few years and nice examples demand decent money, so if you want a cheap one, expect it to be rough. Like […]
Everybody wants to claim they were the first to do something. It doesn’t matter that the good old USA was first to put a man on the moon in 1969, because the Ruskies can say they were the first to put an object on the moon with their Luna 2 mission in 1959, and the […]
The Alfa Romeo 2000 was released in 1971 as an updated version of the 1750 Berlina (sedan). Strangely enough, in 1972 the Milanese manufacturer released the Alfetta sedan, which by all means was intended as a replacement for the aging Berlina, but sales of the 1750/2000 continued through 1977. Today the 1750/2000 cars are a […]
