Vehicle history

I acquired this Giulia Super in January 2008 from a classic car dealer near Nurnberg in southern Germany.

According to the Alfa Romeo Museum archives this Giulia Super was manufactured on March 29th 1969 and sold new on April 3rd 1969 in Bergamo, northern Italy, just east of Milano.

Sadly the early history of this car is unknown. I do however know that it was imported into and road registered in Germany in the early 2000's and then road registered by me in England in January 2008.

I was informed when I purchased it that a light body restoration and full re-paint had been carried out in 2002. The excellent condition of the car certainly substantiated this as it appeared that the car wore many of its original panels such as its front wings, and no welding had ever been carried out on the floor.

During the cars time in Germany later Nuova Giulia Super seats were fitted that featured headrests, although fortunately the original seats were passed onto me.

After purchasing the car I had a large number of mechanical repairs and modification carried out on the car which included an Alfaholics Fast Road Suspension Kit being fitted in January 2008, with Xenon headlights and Alfaholics quick ratio GTA type steering arms fitted in November 2008.

Between April 30th and May 13th 2009 I travelled 1,700 fabulous and fault free miles around Sicily, including a spirited drive along the majority of the original Targa Florio route.

In November 2009 I had the original 1600 engine replaced with a 2000 engine (I have retained the original engine). I had had this engine initially built and fitted into my 1975 GT1600 Junior until I sold it in October 2007. The high specification features two Weber 45 carburetors, Alfaholics lightweight flywheel, balanced crank shaft, aluminium crank shaft pulley, high compression pistons, 12mm Colombo & Bariani cam shafts, Kent Racing valve springs, Pipercross air filter, uprated distributor, external oil cooler, Facet Silver Top electric fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator, and full Alfaholics stainless steel sports manifold and exhaust system. During rolling road testing by Mech Motorsport of Cheltenham in December 2010 the engine showed to have just over 150bhp.

At the time of fitting the engine (November 2009) I also had a 10/41 2000 specification rear axle fitted with limited slip differential (that I had had overhauled by Cloverleaf Transmissions) and Alfaholics 15" GTA Veloce alloy wheels.

Larger 2000 specification front brake discs and calipers along with braided brake hoses and Ferodo DS2500 brake pads were fitted in August 2010.

In March 2015 the car was removed from its storage location where it had sat idle for two and a half years and treated to an Alfaholics aluminium radiator and large electric cooling fan, and also a pair of Alfaholics rifle-drilled light-weight billet camshafts.

Between May and July 2016 the Super had Alfa Romeo specialist restorer John Holden carry out some repairs and modifications to the rear wheel arches as well as some other minor repairs and improvements. He also refitted the chrome strips onto the sills which had been missing for many years (a previous owner had removed them). An already superb car was made even better.

In July 2016 I had Koni Classic shock absorbers fitted to soften the ride.

The Super was taken to Alfaholics in July 2017 for them to supply and install one of their fast-road cylinder heads.

Previously registered in Italy, Germany as RV-J291 and in England as BAN 403G.

This is a superb example of a wonderful car in arguably the most glorious colour combination.
