The seller offers for sale this 1999 Alfa Romeo GTV, equipped with a 1.8-litre Twin Spark four-cylinder engine mated to a manual transmission. This coupe remains a sought-after youngtimer for its elegant Pininfarina design and engaging driving dynamics. Registered in Italy, the car is accompanied by its original documentation and has had minimal use in recent years, with just 46,000 km on the odometer—mileage which is confirmed by documentation.
First introduced in 1995, the Alfa Romeo GTV was designed by Enrico Fumia at Pininfarina and went into production at the historic Arese plant. It marked Alfa Romeo’s return to the sporting coupé segment, blending distinct Italian styling with front-wheel-drive practicality. The 1.8 Twin Spark version offered in this car featured a spirited engine known for its rev-happy nature and characteristic Alfa growl, along with good fuel efficiency and balance for the platform.
The GTV’s design was futuristic for its time, with a sharply cut rear end, wide stance, and compact proportions. It stood apart from other coupés of the era with its driver-focused cockpit, sporty driving position, and a suspension setup that provided excellent handling and feedback, especially in the lighter Twin Spark variants. While V6 models tend to draw headlines, the 1.8 Twin Spark retains a strong enthusiast following for its nimbleness and mechanical simplicity.
Now approaching classic status, the Alfa GTV is increasingly appreciated for its looks, handling, and collectibility. This low-mileage example offers a chance to acquire one of the more original cars available, with verified provenance and minimal cosmetic or mechanical issues reported. With its clean lines and punchy engine, this Alfa Romeo is ideal for collectors or enthusiasts seeking a stylish modern classic.
