Thanks, Loo sent me a link for some new ones that have now arrived

Hello all,
I’m in the process of restoring the Sprint I have to the original interior spec which was the tweed style with grey carpets and plastic trim. If anyone has any I would be very interested in purchasing said items.. thanks in advance. Richard. 07762068704.

Afternoon all, After a fantastic 11 years of ownership I have decided to sell by S3 Alfasud Ti Green Cloverleaf. Most of you will know of my car but if you'd like to know more then here is the link to the auction which is how she is presented for sale. If you're after a nice Alfasud then have a look...

Hi Michael, Well I’ve had my Sud for 10 almost 11 years and whilst I love it to bits I hardly use it. It feels like the time for a new adventure. There’s always a new project just around the corner. I really enjoy the restoration process and know some great people who can help me achieve the results...

Yes, the black carpet is fixed to the rear of the back seats with button like studs. I guess you could have the material cut. I could take a photo with some measurements if that would help?

Hello again, welcome to CAF. Richard here, so good to meet you and great to see your car. I think it’s the most original time warp Alfasud I’ve seen in a long time. Felt like I was getting in a showroom new car when I sat in your car, I was glad of the experience as I missed them as new the first ti...

Thanks Loo, a little bit..

Hello all,
Quick one-does anyone know where I can get the plugs that fit on the front panel of the Sprint so that you can scewfix the grill in place?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Crank,
I’ll take some photos for you but the boot area is lined by a black felt-like material. It is just draped over the spare wheel but I’ve put cardboard over the spare wheel just to make the material more evenly spread. 23 years, that’s good going!

I win!!
Only took a new set of mole grips and some determination but it’s small steps to begin with!

It’s complete with lights, it’s all there. I’m currently getting a quote from a trusted body shop nearby, he’s reasonably impressed with how good it is. Think my Dad has come around to helping me with the engine..it’s going to be an enjoyable project! NB..looking for a 1.7 tweed interior if anyone h...

Jump starting my old thread…it’s now in the capable hands of a proper Alfisti..can’t wait to see the results!

Hello all, it’s been a while since I’ve chatted on CAF but I’m glad to say I’m back. I’ve bought myself a 1988 Sprint 1.7 to fill my winter evenings! Wouldn’t start once I’d parked up (pushed)which was odd as it ran when I’ve viewed it. She guzzled 2 litres of water the night before. Took my dad aro...

Stumbled across this whilst looking for a rear quarter glass for my S3. Rear nearside quarter glass and frame in red. There’s some rust that will need attending but brill elsewhere. Any use to anyone?

I owned this car, I bought it off the previous owner who had had it since 1992!

“big bag of valves”. I’ve also got a load of heads from various engines. So I’m sure I can help. I’m away till Sunday eve I’ll dig through and let you know

Hi Loo, that would be great and much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, yes. It’s 38x8x98 mm.

Hoping the good people on this Forum can help! I have a bent inlet valve on an Alfasud Sprint with part number 60523704 or 125195. Only need 1. Any help greatly appreciated! 07762068704

Thanks Dave, I’ll see what they say. Should make a nice winter project!

Thanks Crank, I’ll look into that link!

I’m looking for a set of standard suspension springs for my Alfasud Ti S3 (ideally new), could anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

Hello all!
I bought some S3 Alfasud Ti Greencloverleaf material of Antonio and I have to say that I'm really quite pleased. I now need to find a quality interior trimming service. Can anyone recommend one, I'm in Blackpool but don't mind travelling a little! Thanks in advance!

Just wondered if anyone has any experience of using Petronas Syntium 800 EU 10W/40 semi-synthetic for their Alfasud. When I put my Suds details in the Halfords website it’s the oil that is recommended. Thanks in advance!

That’s a pretty good idea!

Hello all! I’m trying to help a chap in Southern Ireland who is restoring an Alfasud SC. He needs a tank which I have but I believe I need an EORI (economic operators registration and identification number). Seems a bit much to have to go through so many hoops to send an old part to Ireland. Has any...

Just wondered if anyone could recommend a courier service to pick up a gearbox for me? The seller is happy to put it in a crate for collection. Thanks!

Definitely, I won’t feel so bad about being anti-social and spending the day fitting those parts I find so easy to buy.

Well put Lou, things are changing rapidly in the UK in response to the COVID-19 virus and I guess that we need to have a new way of thinking in terms of what each of us can do to help stop the spread. On a lighter note, you can’t catch it on CAF so don’t let the virus stop the chat.. Best wishes to ...

Each to their own I say. I absolutely love teledials, particularly on the Sud and Sprint as they seem to blend in with the styling of the car so well. The 17” teledials you get with the 916 GTV V6 make the car look like something more than it is and it’s already a beautiful car. Here’s a GTV V6 I ha...

I’m just glad they’re not curbed and pitted at this age lol.
