The Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider Touring represents one of the most elegant interpretations of open-top motoring from Alfa Romeo’s golden era, combining refined Italian design with a truly engaging mechanical character.
Chassis AR10204*00430, this example is presented in a timeless metallic grey, a finish that beautifully enhances the purity of its Touring-designed lines.
Under the bonnet sits a 1975cc inline four-cylinder engine (AR00204*00144), producing 115 horsepower, paired with a manual transmission (13047). The driving experience is light, direct and mechanical in the way only early 1960s Alfa Romeos can deliver – a balance that made these cars particularly appreciated by enthusiasts and gentleman drivers of the period.
Built by Carrozzeria Touring (body number 5689), the Spider benefits from the patented Superleggera construction method – a lightweight tubular framework covered with aluminum panels. This innovative approach, also used on prestigious models such as the Aston Martin DB4, gave the Alfa both agility and elegant proportions.
The 2000 Spider was notably among the last Alfa Romeos to feature this Touring bodywork before the brand transitioned to in-house production, marking the end of an era for handcrafted Italian coachbuilding. It also introduced a higher level of comfort and usability compared to earlier Giulietta models, making it a true grand touring spider rather than a purely sporting roadster.
This car has been fully restored, with attention paid to preserving its overall character and usability. It was acquired by the current owner from its first owner in the United States, offering a clear and appealing ownership background.
Accompanying the vehicle is a particularly complete documentation set:
– Original instruction book
– Factory workshop manuals (engine, clutch, gearbox, propeller shaft, rear axle and suspensions)
– Original spare parts catalogue, preserved in its period condition
A refined and well-documented example of a significant Alfa Romeo model – equally suited for collectors, enthusiasts, or those seeking an authentic and stylish 1960s driving experience.
