My head is, I think, playing tricks on me.

Was there a smallish classic Alfa with lights similar to a TR4s (but with smaller "cowls" - more like gentle lips above really)? Looked a bit like a GTA?

Every now and then something makes me start looking at cars I'd like to own, and this sits in my memory. Unfortunately the model name doesn't!

The GTA in the classifieds is, however, very lovely (if quite pricey).

There's the Stepfront versions of the 105 GT which the GTA is derived from:

Or maybe the 105 Spider?

Off the top of my head I don't know of any which are as pronounced as the TR4, but will keep thinking!

You may be thinking of a Lancia, not an Alfa. Some Fulvias had the "hooded" lights.

Pretty cars.

Thanks guys. I must have been imagining a detail on the GTA.
