Hi All Sadly, it is time to sell my Alfasud. It is a 1976 South African 4 door ti with a later 1500 engine (twin Weber 36's). I have posted the ad on Car and Classic but would be great if a real Alfasud enthusiast were to buy it. https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1256814 Please contact me by PM i...

Lovely looking car. What would it sell for here? Importing a car from SA is quite a bit of work and not cheap. There are a number of hoops to jump through in SA (not expensive, just time consuming) but the shipping, duty and VAT on this side will see the total landed price of that car end up being a...

Saw these rims on eBay:

They look very corroded but are they too far gone to be refurbished? I love the retro style of them and the price is ok but I worry that they may have become porous and brittle. Opinions?

Superb! I love looking at early Suds. SA models always intrigued, mainly as the locals prefer "hot" versions of conventional European motors - hence Basil von Rooyen Little Chev, Ford Perana, homologation Alfa GTV6. I read there was a version of the 1300 Alfasud with twin 44 IDFs - that must have b...

Alfasam, the Rally is like a unicorn, everyone's heard of them, nobody has actually seen one. :D From what I remember, it was a limited edition which did not sell well and I doubt there is a single one left. I've only seen pictures. You are right, Alfa SA used a mish-mash of parts and trims to creat...

Hi there, and welcome to the Forum. Is this by any chance your car pictured when it was in SA :?: I have a large collection of Alfasud related pics on my external hard drive and thought I might have seen the car before. Lovely 4 door Ti by the way. Are the matt black window surrounds original? A ni...

Seats look interesting, any more pics? Sorry, not many decent pics, these were some I took quickly with my mobile for insurance purposes. The seats were re-upholstered about 10 years ago. I'm pretty sure that's not an original Sud colour but works reasonably well imo. The rear seats are like new an...

Yep, 4 doors rule, not that we had any choice in SA, they were all 4 doors!

Thanks Kev, looking forward to meeting a few other Sud owners this year.

Hi petrolhead, just to let you know, I found the ebay listing and bought them as I didn't want to lose them to someone else. I would be happy to cover your ebay costs so you don't lose out. You are welcome to contact me at robgill2004 at gmail dot com.

Regds, Rob.

Welcome Smashcat, What a lovely looking Sud you have there. Looking forward to seeing it and you at a meet some time. NAD looks like we may try and get another Sud gathering. SAD is another chance, maybe. :D ps. love the cat looking out the window as well :D Thanks Kegsti66, I will keep an eye on t...

Hi Smashcat, welcome to the forum! You have a nice Alfasud there. Will you be taking it to some of the Alfa shows this year? They tend to be very enjoyable for us Alfa addicts! Thanks alfasuddriver, yes, I would love to take it to a few shows, I will be attending to a few mechanical issues with the...

Hi all, I registered a while ago but haven't got around to posting a "hello" yet so thought it was time. I moved from South Africa to the UK 2 years ago and brought my Sud with me. I've owned and driven Suds since I was 16 back in Zimbabwe and my current one is a 1976 S1 ti manufactured in SA. Unlik...

Hi petrolhead, I am very interested in the calipers, do you still have them? If you do, price is right so no haggling from me and we can arrange the details.
