Not sure on price. There's so few about to compare it to. The black 1500 on eBay went for nearly £2000 without an MOT, but may have been in better nick bodily?

Sprint 1.7QV - Sold

This is completely unexpected, but due to an increase in family size later this year, I feel I need to let the Sprint go. I just won't have the time it needs spending on it. If there's no interest, I'll try and store it for a while, but that's another story. Most of you know, but it used to belong t...

Washer Jets

I'm after a pair of washer jets for the sprint as it's got mismatched ones at the minute that have different sized fittings.

Anyone got some laying about?

Thanks in advance.

Re: New Member

Wipers and heater are definitely not the car's strong points! It's the back to basics that I like. The wife runs a 159 Ti and as much as it's a lovely car, I'm always petrified something'll go wrong. There's not much that can't be sorted on the sprint with a few spanners and screwdrivers at the road...

Re: New Member

Yeah, like I said, the bodywork needs attention, arches, front wings, scuttle etc. Underneath is pretty good, however the sills will need work along with a few other little bits. Just want to get some use out of it over the summer before pulling it apart over the winter months as I've not had a Spri...

Spent this evening balancing the carbs, need to get some trumpets though, the noise with no airbox is fantastic!!

Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, we're still up at the lockup, however I've just moved back into Lincolnshire so I'm hoping to get up there more often and start sorting stuff out. Sprint is ok. I've rebuilt the carbs, replaced some fuel/coolant hoses, sorted the brakes, new plugs and leads etc. Just go...

Hi all, found this site after browsing the web yesterday. After seeing some of the issues on alfaowner I decided to give it a miss!
