Classic Cars magazine (http://www.classiccarsmagazine.co.uk/) included the Alfa Romeo Spider among its '21 Hottest Ragtops.' They describe the Alfa Romeo Spider as a 'delicate driving experience on the comfortable end of sporting' and note the 'romantic elegance' of the restyled Alfa Romeo Spider Series 4. The car has a strong following in the Alfa Romeo Owners Club. Click here for prices or to check availability.
The original Alfa Romeo Spider was known as the Duetto and was created by Alfa Romeo in 1966 to meet demand for a small, stylish and sporty two seater. It was designed to compete against MGs and Triumphs but in the UK, due to import duties, it actually cost more than a Jaguar E-Type (history).
In the late ‘80s Alfa Romeo commissioned Pininfarina to update its original design and launched the Series 4 in 1990. More luxurious than earlier versions, it still retains the essential charm of the original Duetto.
