I got very mixed up..... if I were spending £10k on a Sprint, I think
the Zagato Junior might just get the nod ;-)

Also spotted an absolutely mint Alfetta 2.0l in two-tone paint, with
alloys and full history for £995.

That's something I really could almost justify buying. If I sold the
155.....

If I had 10 grand I'd probably buy it to cannibalise for parts for my
Sprint.

is it not worth it? It's in stunning condition for what it is. But I don't
know if this is a rare collectors alfa or not.

Neither rare, nor collectible. That's Steve's point.  What he's
conveniently ignoring (:)) is that it's a concourse winning car.  If you
wanted to restore a 'normal' Sprint, like for example, mine, to that kind
of condition, I doubt you'd see any change from 10k

Some people like to win concourses.....

I'd love on those.  Can you see how it inspired Giugaro in the design of the
Sprint?  They are very similar.
