Any views on this car?
Discussion
I don't know why I clicked on this, but there you go.
I know the garage, as I've been to look at a car there before. It's only about 20 mins away. Happy to go take a look for you if interested. Have a bit of Alfa and classic car knowledge.
From memory the garage dealt with everything, cheap bangers to classics. Looked like a nice place, couple of big barns and a stone forecourt. It's tucked down a little track. A genuine place, but I recall the car I went to see was rather shonky.
Anyway, happy to help.

I would be cautious of this one. It has cropped up as a topic on the owners club forum and Facebook page.
Whilst it may be a perfectly good car and is certainly cheap for a Sprint, or a GTV, the problem is it is neither. It's quite a weird hybrid which I understand was heavily restored in Malta some time ago before many of the repair panels became available.
The proportions somehow didn't look right on the auction photos when it was previously up for sale (not eBay) and their was a curious chrome strip along the sills, hiding what I can't imagine.
Just be cautious.
EDIT... found some more info which cropped up on the AROC forum

/\ This.If you know nothing about 105 Bertone coupes it might be fine for you ( that is - until you come to try and sell it ).
If you know about 105 Bertone coupes, you'd walk away - in fact you wouldn't walk there in the first place .
