Key strengths: Great looks
Areas for improvement: Badly made & rust-prone
Look at it, and that's the reason for owning an old Alfa-sud.
Its fast, incredibly so for its age relative to 'modern' cars (still got 100BHP+ on the engine), goes round corners like they aren't there, and says style at you with a big smile.
On the downside, it rattles, things regularly fall off, but that's the ownership part. If you enjoy maintaining cars - as well as driving them - its perfect. If you want something to drive to the shops (that'll be a 4x4 then) its not for you.
Get one without too much tin worm and its great fun, but remember rust doesn't stop, it just moves around to another bit... The running costs for Alfa Romeo Alfasud 1.5 Manual are normal
