Whats the price range for a 75 3.0

[mr_oversteer]

I'm keeping an eye out for a scruffy 75 3.0, but have seen cars for £300 and i have seen one for £3000. I need some advice. p.s is this a good first Alfa?

I had a 75 TSpark for nearly 3 years I loved it to bits & sold it for all the wrong reasons.
Don't buy a bargain basement one unless you have the skills to fix yourself.
Buy strictly on condition NOT price.
Rear brakes are a pain & a clutch isn't 5 minutes either although a damn site easier than the 944 that I have now. Transaxles need regular oil changes & should be fairly quiet, if it whines under power & is quiet on the over-run then the pinion bearing is knackered & you need to talk to Cloverleaf transmissions AMHIK.
3 litre has a cam belt so will need changing, although with RWD not difficult.
Worth getting onto Alfadigest as theirs loads of knowledgable peeps on there. In other markets it was known as the Milano.
Damn quick, excellent handling car thats quite under-rated get a goodun & you won't be disappointed.

Hmmm, quite tempted by a 75 V6. The noise, oh the noise...

Sabine & Co use them for training at the 'ring. Has to be a good sign I'd have thought.

Yup same mob. When I last saw them, Sabine was working with them giving instruction at an RMA track day at Spa. I assume she works with them at the 'Ring as well? My point was that if they are used thus they can obviously take some abuse, be made to handle propery, be reasonably economic to run under these condition and generally worth the OP's attention.

Hadn't heard of Sabine working for them. I must have picked the wrong day to do the course as she was driving the 'Ring Taxi the day I did the course with them. As for the cars, I've only driven their prepared cars so not sure what a road car would be like, but the ones I tried were really good fun to drive. They have theirs stripped, caged and lowered.
