  • Rather lovely Roadster on eBay with 2L straight 6

    Albeit with a lovely price tag as well!

    With a dealer at £6,750.

    If I'm not mistaken this is the one that Spinning Wheel sold previously.

      No, it's a 1987 produced Hybrid kit, with a Triumph front and Marina back end

        According to DVLA it’s an Alfa Romeo 6c zagato! Still a bit cheaper than the £1.3m asked for a genuine one.

              Yes, that is rather nice, a little undecided on the faux cut-outs around the grill though I suppose they are trying to evoke the original 1750 that was the basis of the Marlin design.

                I can now see how you were mistaken or not etc.

                You would thing DVLA and VOSA would compare there descriptions dont know how the MOT station can put in Alfa Romeo surely the MOT certificate wont now match the V5c.

                  Curiously, it doesn't appear to have a hood - or at least no picture of one. The frame is there but no hood on it..?

                    Looks like it's tucked behind the seats.
