Nice looking car but it doesnt mention any restoration.
Sounds like the current owner bought it and parked it up.

I would have thought Ti's of that age would have had the pepperpot or dustbin lid alloys???

All 105hp cars were Green cloverleafs. (In the Uk at least) looks more like a 95hp

I don't know what you would call it but I had a booted Sud but with all the styling of a S3. It had the 95 bhp engine. What a car! Wish I still had it.

Bet we all think that though

rsfruitbat That would of been a transitional car between S2and S3 looked like S3 but with Boots instead of hatches all had 95hp engines all Green cloverleaf were S3 hatchbacks with 105hp engines. Of course Colin will correct me if I'm wrong

My first alfasud ti was a x reg one just like this one with same interior.
I paid 500 pounds back in 1992.
But it was quite rusty .

They did do a 95bhp sud ti on x reg that was a hatchback too as I had one .
I also had the changeover one too which had boot like the earlier ones with series 3 rear lights and it had series 2 interior and dash and was on a w reg .
It was a sud tis which I have never seen once since.

Unfortunately it was the only Sud i owned as a road car. Broke a few in my time but they were all basketcases.
The guy who I bought mine off said that she was sold as a Ti Veloce. Pretty sure that's what the reg document said but there was definitely no additional badging or anything else . She eventually disintegrated age 10 after already having a serious amount of welding. Back then they were 10 a penny and thought no more of it. Mine had S3 clocks and switch gear. Interior was a beige velour with a brownish carpet.
How I regret it now but I think it would have had to have been a Kev style resurrection to bring her back to life.
I always remember she was Posilipio blue. An absolutely gorgeous colour. Still got a picture of her on my wall

Early series 3 ti Sud did have the series 2 bootlid before they introduced the hatch.
I had a red one (1981).
