The right colour, the right 'box, the right options and - dare it be said - maybe the right price as well...Over the past decade and a bit, we’ve all become familiar with iconic hot hatches of the 20th century soaring in value. It has sometimes felt like every month saw another auction record for an RS Turbo, GTI or Williams, cars that were bargain hot hatches for so long now apparently classic exotica.
There are a good few reasons why the Alfa 147 GTA might have joined them. Sure, it was never the best thing in the world to drive, but that has never stopped a lot of the old, rubbish hot hatches being worth a fortune. The joy of nostalgia. It’s rare, fast, looks fantastic and is powered by one of the great combustion engines. This one has a manual gearbox, too, as well as that gorgeous Alfa Red paint.
So it’s a very good spec - including the aftermarket, desirable fitment of the Q2 diff - with a sensible mileage and what appears to be lovely condition. Sunshine and space for the pictures always help, but the paint is lustrous and the engine bay clean as a whistle. The interior perhaps looks more like 20 years old, though that was never really a 147 strong point. Nothing a bit of leather feed can’t aid. . Even as far back as 2012, a really good, low-mileage one was £8k.
