Alfa Romeo 4C Spider

[Moley RUFC]

300 miles and enjoying every single yard in it so far. The experience is hard to explain but pure and raw are probably the best two for words for now.

Lucky with the weather so far as I haven’t actually driven it in with the roof on!

Bias as I may be, in pretty sure it’s one of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen let alone driven and judging by the reaction when I’m out and about I think the feeling is mutual.

Here is Roary (as named by my 7 year old son) with the Giulia Speciale.

Very nice pair of cars there!

Especially the Spider. Beautiful in form & function, enjoy & do update on the ownership experience.

[Squadrone Rosso]

Cracking pair

[Moley RUFC]

Thanks.

Certainly impressed with it so far. I’ll be taking up to Alcon for the Sunday Service at the end of the month.

Love these. Wish I had the budget for one as they literally tick all my boxes.
Enjoy!

Love that 4C. One to keep for the long term.

I'd take to to boys up in Royston (Alfa Workshop) for their chassis tweaks (geo & modified rear wishbones). Makes a huge improvement apparently.

Hope you enjoy your time with this pair of beauties.

VERY intrigued by these!

How are they for room inside compared to a an exige/elise do you know?

On my list for potential replacements for my ginetta when the time comes. Only thing that puts me off is the turbo engine (although its the same engine in my daily!)

[Moley RUFC]

Well, I’m 6’ 3” and fit fine with little adjustment on seat.

You are sat lower within the car than any Lotus I’ve driven (Elise and no Exige) and this ‘drop’ into the car does take some adjustment.

That said it’s a price worth paying for the experience.

Wonderful. I thought seriously about one of these when they were doing the crazy leasing deals on them a while back, but couldn't quite afford one. I absolutely love them.

There was certainly an issue on coupe models however the spider especially on the 17” and 18” wheel combo feels pretty well grounded to me. Sure, it tracks the cambers a bit on our st roads but crucially instils confidence when pushing on.

Very nice

I'm hoping they fall another £10k so I can buy one...

These are beautiful looking cars.

[BVB]

Beautiful cars, well done. The 4C will surelly be highly collectible in the not too distant future. Apart from the fact of it's technology (carbon tub etc) but it's looks alone! Hang onto it forever.

Very nice car

Looks wide, does it go in the garage easy enough?

[Moley RUFC]

If easy enough is 18mm each side then yes.......like a glove

[Pommy]

Stunning car and agree a future classic.

Do you think one of these could be used nearly every day for a regular 30-50 mile commute?

[Moley RUFC]

I don’t have to, but if I did then yes I think you could. The main issue would be general visibility and being seen in the rain I think. You are soooo low that even coming up alongside a Ford Focus feels like an SUV.

That aside it’s no different than driving the original Mini which is the closest car I can think of in terms of its feel when driving sedately. Odd comparison I know....

That’s good to know especially as I’ve heard mixed things

Anything in the reviews you disagree with?

I'm waiting for 4C's to become vaguely affordable...
