ALFA ROMEO 75 6V 3.0 VELOCE

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 on Sunday the 24th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

Named to celebrate Alfa's 75th Anniversary, the 75 Saloon gained a reputation for superb dynamics, great handling and particularly in 3-litre V6 form, sparkling performance

Top of the range was the rare 3.0 Veloce with the even rarer OEM leather interior, as we have here

It's an original UK-supplied example showing just over 51,000 miles supported by a comprehensive history file with original handbooks, stamped service book, old MOTs and a fully detailed DVLA ownership log showing every change of keeper

However, the appeal of this particular Alfa will have very little to do with the above, as it was used (and abused) by Jeremy Clarkson during the infamous Alfa Challenge in Episode 3 of Top Gear's Season 11 - 3 Italians fight it out

Despite his best efforts, the Alfa survived and was later purchased by our vendor, still wearing its battle scars

During our vendor's 11 years of ownership, c.£4,500 has been spent on the car mechanically, including a cam belt service, new clutch, fully rebuilt gearbox and more

The car is supplied with three doors, a bonnet, front wings, rear arches, and front and rear bumpers should its next owner wish to return the car to standard spec

A great opportunity to buy a TV 'star car' that starts, runs and stops. Last MOT expired in 2017
