Saw this rather rare 8c convertible the other day and thought I’d immortalise it in celluloid, ahem, take a snap with my smartphone.

This one is a 63 plate and like new, must have been in a lockup as I am sure they stopped making these about a decade ago..

Yes they stopped production in 2010. Probably sat with a collector unregistered. You could collect them direct from Italy. Something I wish they would have let me done with my 4C or Giulia.

Apparently Alfa are working on having the Italy collection available again in the new future.
