(1959 - 1962)
Car articles about Alfa Romeo 2000 Sprint by year
Based on the Alfa Romeo 1900 and the short version 1900C, many special bodies of great elegance were created in the 1950s. The coachbuilder Ghia-Aigle also fitted the Alfa chassis with coupé bodies designed by Giovanni Michelotti, one of which will be auctioned by Bonhams in Spa at the end of May 2013. This report briefly summarizes the history of the Alfa Romeo 1900 C and discusses the individual variants. One of the Ghia-Aigle coupés is described and illustrated in detail.
In 1961, the magazine 'hobby' "cross-examined" affordable sports cars. Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint, Fiat 1500 Spider, MG A, MG A Twin Cam, Triumph TR 3, Porsche 1600 and 1600 S, as well as Sunbeam Alpine and Mercedes-Benz 190 SL were contrasted and compared. And the winner? Read for yourself! Let's just say that although the most expensive car was almost twice as expensive as the cheapest, the best sports car scored just under 3% better than the worst. This report edits the comparison test of the time and supplements it with many contemporary photos and sales brochures of the vehicles involved. To revel in!
In 1962, a good seven years after its first appearance, the Giulietta had collected a thin layer of dust in terms of both construction and design. The rigid rear axle is occasionally noticeable and the poor all-round visibility also shows that the pretty coupé is more in line with the automotive chronology of the 1950s. Thanks to its great twin-cam engine and the Bertone body, the Giulietta Sprint has hardly lost any of its appeal. The original test report from 1962 is accompanied by a wealth of historical images and sales documents.
The elegant coupé that Bertone presented in Turin in 1957 only had an engine capacity of 1.3 liters, but it was capable of a top speed of over 200 km/h. Impressive. A racing career was on the cards, but things turned out differently. With almost 2800 units produced, the Granturismo coupé was certainly a commercial success and it is still popular today and much admired for its unusual design. This report portrays a 1.6-liter Giulia from 1964 and shows it in many current and historical pictures, which also impressively illustrate its predecessors.
